HC Deb 17 December 1993 vol 234 c1095W
Mr. Vaz

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what is the cost to public funds of the change of name of the Urban Regeneration Agency to English Partnerships; and if he will make a statement on the reason for the change.

Mr. Baldry

The name English Partnerships reflects the fact that the agency will operate in the whole of England and in partnership with the public, private and voluntary sectors. The adoption of this operating name did not entail any increase in its preparatory costs.
