asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what sums of regional aid have been paid to companies operating in (a) Tayside region and (b) Dundee in the first four months of 1981.

Mr. Alexander Fletcher

Comprehensive information on regional aid is not available in the form requested. In the first four months of 1981 offers of assistance under section 7 of the 1972 Industry Act totalling £1.8 million were made to companies in Tayside region, all of these being in Dundee. Quarterly information on section 7 assistance and regional development grants—above certain limits—to individual companies appears inBritish Business.
