Question: To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry, how much brownfield land has been redeveloped by each regional development agency in each year since their formation.

Answer: Ms Shipley: To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry how much brownfield land has been redeveloped by each regional development agency in each year since their formation. [66243] Alan Johnson: During the three years after the RDAs were created on 1 April 1999 up to the introduction of their Single Programme funding on 1 April 2002, the RDAs reported to each funding Department individually on the outcome of their separate programmes. Brownfield land redevelopment was funded by what is now the Office of my right hon. Friend, the Deputy Prime Minister. Accordingly DTI does not hold any figures for these years.
