London Visitor and Convention Bureau (Hansard, 24 June 1986)

HC Deb 24 June 1986 vol 100 c104W 104W

§ 29. Mr. Porter
asked the Paymaster General whether he proposes to provide financial support to the London Visitor and Convention Bureau, following the abolition of the Greater London Council; and if he will make a statement.

§ Mr. Trippier
The Government already provide financial support to the LVCB through the English Tourist Board and this support will continue. I am happy to report that in addition to this support from the ETB, the London boroughs' grants committee is to provide in 1986–87 £360,000 of basic funding to the LVCB with a further £180,000 for special projects.
