§ Mr. MaddenTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, pursuant to his reply of 7 December, when the Groundwork Foundation submitted an application to Bradford council; on what date the meeting between an officer of the Groundwork Foundation, Councillor Pickles and council officials took place; what the trust to be established in Bradford in 1990–91 will do during that period; and how much grant it will receive from Bradford council.
§ Mr. TrippierAn officer of the Groundwork Foundation met Councillor Pickles on 27 April 1989 and had meetings with Bradford council officials between February and June 1989. Subsequently on 10 July Bradford's policy and resources committee resolved to support in principle the establishment of a Groundwork Trust in the city. The council has allocated £40,000 for the project in its 1990–91 budget. It is understood that the preparation of a firm proposal for the trust is at present in hand.
