HC Deb 09 February 1999 vol 325 cc161-2W
Mr. Edwards

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what projects have been approved under the New Deal for Communities Programme in Wales. [69274]

Mr. Hain

None. New Deal for Communities is an England-only Programme run by DETR. The parallel Welsh Programme is "People in Communities" and its eight demonstration projects are:

  • Gurnos and Galon Uchaf—Merthyr Tydfil
  • Duffryn—Newport
  • Blaenymaes and Portmead—Swansea
  • Peulwys Estate—Conwy
  • Southsea and Brynteg—Wrexham
  • Rhiwgarn Estate, Trebanog—Rhondda, Cynon, Taff
  • Rhymney—Caerphilly
  • Deiniolen, Dinorwig and Clwt Y Bont—Gwynedd.

In future this will become the responsibility of the National Assembly.
