HC Deb 22 February 1980 vol 979 c609W
54. Mr. Wheeler

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how much money will be allocated to urban development corporations in their first year of operation; and on what terms.

60. Mr. Murphy

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how much money will be allocated to urban development corporations in the first year; and on what terms.

Mr. Heseltine

I refer my hon. Friends to the answer I gave earlier today to my hon. Friend the Member for Sowerby (Mr. Thompson).

70. Mr. Thornton

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will make it a condition of the operation of urban development corporations that they do not build public housing.

Mr. Heseltine

It would be premature to constrain the UDCs in this way while consultations on their responsibilities, areas, and powers are still in progress.

71. Mr. Spearing

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment when he expects to announce the names of the members designate of the proposed urban development corporations.

Mr. Heseltine

As soon as possible.
