§ Mr. Frank FieldTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what plans he has to change the present strategy of regional assistance as it affects the Wirral.
§ Mr. Robert B. JonesThe Government's view of the assisted areas map, which defines those parts of Great Britain eligible for regional assistance, was completed last year. The new map reconfirmed Wirral's development area status for regional assistance purposes, and the Government, do not propose to review the assisted areas again for at least two years.
