HC Deb 19 October 1982 vol 29 c105W
Mr. Parry

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will make a statement on the Under-Secretary of State's recent visit to Merseyside.

Sir George Young:

In connection with my responsibilities for ethnic groups and race relations, I visited Liverpool on 14 September as part of a fact finding tour of the larger cities. I visited a number of community and other centres; met community leaders and workers; lunched with representatives of financial institutions; had discussions with local authority officials, and met the police. A number of issues are being followed up by the Merseyside task force as a result of the visit.
