§ Mr. Lawlerasked the Prime Minister when a decision will be made regarding the request by Bradford City football club for financial assistance to enable the Valley Parade ground to be rebuilt.
§ Mr. Kenneth BakerI have been asked to reply.
At the request of Bradford city council I am pleased to be able to make it an additional capital expenditure allocation for 1985–86 of £1.462 million. This will enable the council to make a grant to the Bradford City football club towards the rebuilding of the club's ground at Valley Parade. I pay tribute to my hon. Friend's efforts on behalf of the club.
