§ Dr. GodmanTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment how much money has been spent by way of the European Community's Renaval programme in(a) the Plymouth area and (b) north-east England; what kind of projects received sums of money in each of the two localities; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. YeoNo ERDF grant has yet been paid to participants in the Renaval programmes in Plymouth nor the north-east of England due to their recent approval. However, within the programmes so far one project to the value of £1.6 million has been approved under the Plymouth programme for the development of industrial land. In north-east England eight projects have been approved to the value of £2.4 million. These are related to the development of land and industrial premises, and improving the environment and image of the area.
