§ Mr. RowlandsTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales whether he will list those projects which constitute the £800 million to be spent under the valleys initiative, indicating(a) what proportion of that sum will fall directly on his Department's vote and (b) the amount of money to be spent on each project in each year covered by the £800 million total.
§ Mr. David HuntProvision for the programme for the valleys area over the five years from June 1988 to March 1993 is about £800 million. It covers a wide variety of programmes and it is not possible to list the individual projects except at disproportionate cost.
A breakdown of outturn for 1988–89 to 1990–91 and of provision for 1991–93 for the different categories of expenditure is shown in the following table.
Seventy per cent. of the £781.709 million falls within my Department's vote.
