Dept of Trade and Industry

Answer

Claire Ward: To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if she will list the organisations and businesses in Hertfordshire that have received funding from (a) the Department and (b) its arms length bodies in (i) 2002-03 and (ii) 2003-04. [207574] Jacqui Smith: The majority of departmental funding for Hertfordshire is made available through its arms length bodies. The following table shows a list of Hertfordshire based businesses and organisations in receipt of DTI funding through the East of England Development Agency (EEDA) and the Small Business Service (SBS). The list includes Business Link for Hertfordshire whose primary funding is channelled through the regional SBS team based in Cambridge. Because the Department's Finance and Resource Management Directorate does not hold information at county level it would not be possible, without disproportionate expense, to provide a comprehensive list of businesses and organisations in Hertfordshire that have received funding from centrally delivered initiatives. Hertfordshire companies and organisations receiving funding through DTI agencies in financial years ending 31 March 2003 and 2004 _________________________________________________________________________________________________.
