HC Deb 30 March 1983 vol 40 cc153-4W
Mr. Wardell

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will publish in the Official Report the amount of money that industry in Wales received from the quota section of the European regional development fund in each of the last three years; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Nicholas Edwards

£ million
1980 18.46
1981 0.44
1982 13.82
