Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between John Glen and Andrew Percy

Monday 24th October 2016 Commons Chamber

[John Glen (Salisbury) (Con)]

Will my hon. Friend confirm that he is fully engaged in evaluating the regional growth fund bid from Swindon and Wiltshire? Will he ensure that the emphasis on long-term skills development at Wiltshire College will be looked upon favourably in due course?

[Andrew Percy]

I met my hon. Friend recently to discuss issues across south Wiltshire. We are assessing the local growth fund bids at the moment—this will be a massive investment in regeneration across the country—and we will have an announcement on that particular proposal shortly.
