HC Deb 29 November 1993 vol 233 c324W
Mr. Alfred Morris

To ask the Prime Minister what financial and other help from Her Majesty's Government the city of Manchester can expect if its bid to host the Commonwealth games in 2002 is successful.

The Prime Minister

[holding answer 26 November 1993]: The Commonwealth Games Council for England will decide next February whether an English bid will be made for the 2002 Commonwealth games. It would therefore be premature for me to comment on the nature or scale of Government support in advance of that decision.
