HC Deb 07 May 2003 vol 404 c726W
Mr. Kidney

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport what financial support has been requested from her Department for the establishment of a national visitor attraction within the proposed Great British Kitchen development at Stafford. [111184]

Dr. Howells

The Department is not aware of any direct requests for financial assistance to support the Great British Kitchen development. However, I am aware that there have been a number of meetings between officials at the Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and the British Food Trust to discuss this project.
