HC Deb 18 July 1984 vol 64 c231W
27. Mr. David Marshall

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what recent representations he has received concerning arrangements for the attraction of inward investment to Scotland.

Mr. Allan Stewart

Under existing arrangements for attracting inward investment, Locate in Scotland combines the resources of the Scottish Office and the Scottish Development Agency, and co-ordinates the activities of new towns and local authorities in a united effort for Scotland. Although no formal representations about these arrangements have been addressed to my right hon. Friend other than points made in Parliament, Locate in Scotland has received widespread recognition of its success, which will be taken into account in the review of United Kingdom inward investment promotion which is currently taking place.
