Lord Greenhalgh (Con)
My Lords, I like to be tested at the Dispatch Box, but I have been given a blizzard of statistics and an impossible request to give five examples. No, I cannot do that, but I am not sure it is particularly helpful. We recognise the need to see real economic development and a strong Welsh economy because, ultimately, that is what is going to make a difference to people’s lives.
Baroness McIntosh of Pickering (Con)
How will rural areas such as North Yorkshire, the new unitary authority, benefit from the shared prosperity fund?
Lord Greenhalgh (Con)
I am sorry, I did not hear the question. But Yorkshire is a very important place as well.
