§ Rev. Ian Paisleyasked the Prime Minister why the European Economic Community Commission, despite its request in a letter of 23 February 1979 to the United Kingdom Government, has to date not received all the necessary information it requires to enable it to evaluate the allocation of aid from the European regional development fund in the United Kingdom budget; and if she will undertake to have this information supplied forthwith so that a proper and conclusive examination may be made of the question of "additionality".

§ The Prime Minister[pursuant to her reply, 20 March 1981, c. 202–3]: The Commission has been given information, most recently in 1980, about the allocation of aid in the United Kingdom from the European regional development fund. I am not aware of any recent requests from the Commission for further information. But if they are made we shall, of course, do our best to meet them.
