Mr. Pendry

asked the Secretary of State for Employment how much money from the European social fund allocation of 1980 will be apportioned to the cost of the youth opportunities programme in the youth priority region of North-West England.

Mr. Peter Morrison

The 1980 allocations to the United Kingdom from the European social fund towards the cost of the youth opportunities programme included £39.46 million for the "youth priority regions" of North and North-West England and Scotland taken together. No separate allocation was made in respect of North-West England.
