§ Mr. RedmondTo ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will publish for each county and local authority the allocation of funding that has been made under the strategic development scheme and its predecessor schemes, including the urban programmes, rural initiatives, projects of national and regional importance and special projects, for each of the last four years and for 1994–95.
§ Mr. CurryI assume that the hon. Member's question relates to the single regeneration budget, which brings together 20 Government initiatives, including the urban programme, directed at urban and other areas. As the SRB includes programmes and projects which operate across local authority areas, information is not available in the form sought. However, the Department's 1994 annual report included details for all the SRB component programmes of total expenditure in each of the last four years and planned expenditure for 1994–95. Details of all successful bids for new SRB funding were sent to the hon. Member on 5 December.
