HC Deb 30 October 1980 vol 991 c366W
Rev. Ian Paisley

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will explain the delay in Her Majesty's Government submitting a formal proposal to the EEC Commission for an integrated plan for the development of Belfast; and if he will undertake that the funds intended for Belfast will not be deducted from Northern Ireland's regional fund allocation to the detriment of the rest of Northern Ireland and will be wholly additional to expenditure already planned by Her Majesty's Government.

Mr. Giles Shaw

I shall reply to the hon. Gentleman as soon as possible.
