HC Deb 29 July 1982 vol 28 cc630-1W
Mr. Prescott

asked the Minister for Trade if he will list the expenditure of the English Tourist Board, by region, the Welsh Tourist Board, and the Scottish Tourist Board in each year since 1970.

Mr. Sproat

[pursuant to his reply, 28 July 1982, c. 524]: Most of the English Tourist Board's expenditure is neither allocated nor analysed on a regional basis but certain information—including particulars of the board's subventions to the non-statutory regional tourist boards and a breakdown of the assistance given under section 4 of the Development of Tourism Act 1969—is included each year in the board's annual reports, copies of which are available in the Library. Expenditure by the Scottish and Wales Tourist Boards is a matter for the Secretaries of State for Scotland and Wales respectively.
