HC Deb 18 January 1988 vol 125 cc560-1W
Mr. Boyes

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment how much has been spent by each urban development corporation from the formation of the London Docklands development corporation to the latest date available, by year.

Mr. Trippier

Information on expenditure is contained in each urban development corporation's annual report and accounts, copies of which are laid before the House. Reports by London Docklands DC and Merseyside DC cover the period from their formation to the end of the last full financial year (1986–87). The only other corporation to spend during that period was Trafford Park DC which came into operation on 10 February 1987 and spent £31,000 in 1986–87.
