HC Deb 02 December 1993 vol 233 cc725-9W
Mr. Alex Carlile

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will list each grant over £25,000 in value made by his Department and the Wales tourist board to tourism-related projects in the principality since 1979; and if he will make a statement.

Sir Wyn Roberts

This information is not readily available and cannot be obtained without disproportionate cost. However, since 1 April 1986 to date, the Wales tourist board has provided grant over £25,000 to 260 separate projects.

From 1987, the board's annual report lists all grant support over £10,000.
