HC Deb 17 November 1982 vol 32 c204W
Mr. Geraint Howells

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will give additional financial assistance to marginal land areas in Wales; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Wyn Roberts

The Government's preference is to achieve less favoured status for the marginal land areas. No undertaking to provide additional aid can be given at this time.
