We will also be launching a £10 million competitive fund, supported with advice from Sir George Iacobescu, to enable local areas to generate locally-led proposals for new business‑backed development corporations and similar delivery bodies.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 20/06/2019 15:15:29 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse
