§ Mr. Wattsasked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will publish details of the indicators used to select authorities eligible to bid for resources under the 1986–87 urban programme and list for each urban area with a population of more than 30,000 its score on each indicator.
§ Sir George YoungDetails of the indicators used to select authorities eligible to bid for urban programme resources, and the scores for individual authorities, are contained in my Department's "Census Information Note No. 2", copies of which are in the Library of the House. For the purpose of selecting the authorities to be given priority for support under the traditional urban programme for 1986–87, latest data about unemployment rates derived from theEmployment Gazette have also been taken into account.
