HC Deb 16 November 1983 vol 48 c477W
Mr. Gwilym Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will analyse, by county, the amounts of regional development grants distributed in Wales from 1979 to date.

Mr. Trippier

Statistics of regional development grant payments are kept on the basis of employment office areas which do not always coincide with county boundaries. The figures in the table following are therefore only approximate. They are based on the lists of individual grant payments published quarterly inBritish Business and exclude individual payments not exceeding £25,000.

1 April 1979 to 30 September 1983
Total £'000
Clwyd 52,313
Dyfed 88,719
Gwent 33,201
Gwynedd 3,541
Mid Glamorgan 45,654
Powys 1,595
South Glamorgan 25,964
West Glamorgan 74,232
