HC Deb 26 May 1989 vol 153 c762W
Mr. Wigley

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will seek to ensure that funds available to the Wales tourist board from the European Community for the purposes of developing projects associated with the European tourism year 1990, are not restricted by the Government's non-additionality rule, but will represent a genuine additional level of funding which can facilitate new projects which could not otherwise take place.

Mr. Peter Walker

In taking public expenditure decisions the Government take into account the expected level of European Community receipts. Resource provision for the Wales tourist board will be considered as part of the public expenditure survey in the normal way.
