§ Mr. Alfred Morrisasked the Secretary of State for Industry, pursuant to the second paragraph of his reply on 8 February to the right hon. Member for Manchester, Wythenshawe, whether he now accepts that the Manchester/Salford partnership area should be designated as a development area.
§ Mr. Norman Lamont[pursuant to the reply, 11 February 1982]: No. I regret that the second paragraph of my reply on 8 February to the right hon. Member for Manchester, Wythenshawe (Mr. Morris) was misleading as printed. The words "for the whole county" should have read "for the Partnership Area" and my earlier reply should be read accordingly.
