§ Mr. Leeasked the Secretary of State for Industry whether he will make a statement about the designation of further derelict land clearance areas.
§ Sir Keith JosephFollowing a review carried out with my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for the Environment, I have decided to designate the Coalville employment office area as a derelict land clearance area. In addition, the following employment office areas which are due to become non-assisted areas on 1 August 1982, will be made derelict land clearance areas as from that date and will thereby retain eligibility for 100 per cent. grants for approved schemes of derelict land clearance. The necessary order will be laid before the House in due course.
