Mr. Sweeney

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales when he proposes to notify the economic development non-departmental public bodies in Wales of his strategic guidance for 1996–97. [20977]

Mr. Hague

I have today written to the chairmen of the Welsh development agency, the Development Board for Rural Wales, Cardiff Bay development corporation, the Land Authority for Wales and the Wales tourist board to inform them of my strategic targets for 1996–97 and to set out my policy and operational priorities which should be taken into account in the preparation of corporate and operational plans. Copies of the letters have been placed in the Library of the House.
