Before Christmas we had the brilliant news that £40 million of capital funding has been allocated for a new state-of-the-art A&E facility at Scarborough Hospital, which will transform emergency care for my constituents. Can the Minister update me on similar ambitious plans for Whitby Hospital?

My right hon. Friend is right to welcome the announcement for Scarborough Hospital, and I understand that the full business case for the redevelopment of Whitby Hospital is going through the Hambleton, Richmondshire and Whitby governing body for approval on 24 January. I am assured that the clinical commissioning group remains supportive of the redevelopment of Whitby Hospital and, if it is helpful, I would obviously be delighted to meet him after 24 January.

European Structural Funding

With your permission, Mr. Betts, I would like to add my thanks to Barnsley council and the mayor for their warm welcome today. The most recent assessment is that since 2000, European structural funds have helped to create an estimated 1,079 new jobs in the Scarborough district. They are estimated to have contributed additional gross value added of £33 million to the local economy.

European Structural Funding

Objective 1 funding between 2000 and 2006 provided around £767 million of European funds in South Yorkshire. Some of the issues with particular funding concerned promoting innovation, research and development, and economic infrastructure and regeneration projects for the development of the economy in South Yorkshire. All of us who have seen that funding working in action would say that over the past few years it has been immensely helpful in getting people back to work and in creating new jobs in a part of the country that had been badly damaged in 18 years of Conservative rule. We have benefited from that funding, and we will continue to do so under the new arrangements.

European Structural Funding

In terms of reconciling end-of-period accounts, there are ongoing discussions about the audit process. I have had meetings with the European Commissioner, not only on how to ensure that some of the issues with past accounts are resolved as quickly as possible but—looking to the future and the new money that will come into the region in the current spending period, up to 2013—on putting in place a fair audit system that is easily understood by all involved.

European Structural Funding

The Government have recently been fined a record £285 million in financial penalties by the European Union because of a failure to follow procurement rules, and a lack of supporting documentation to account for expenditure from the European regional development fund. Given that the ERDF’s primary purpose is to provide funding to boost economic development in places such as Scarborough, does the Minister regret that significant amounts of funding for such areas have been lost due to administrative incompetence?

European Structural Funding

What funding has been made available generally in South Yorkshire as a result of European structural funding, and will she explain how that has impacted on the engineering industry there? It is so important to Barnsley to have access to jobs that are created as a result of incoming investment. It would be helpful if she could say a few words about how the funding has impacted positively on South Yorkshire.

Mr. Don Foster: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what assessment has been made by his Department since 19 January 2001 of the (a) safety and maintenance standards and (b) works of the local authority ports at (i) Whitby, (ii) Gillingham, (iii) Torquay, (iv) Ramsgate New Port, (v) Sunderland, (vi) Scarborough, (vii) Bristol Royal Docks, (viii) Bridport, (ix) Portsmouth Commercial Port and (x) Weymouth Harbour; what financial support has been provided by the Department in each case; and what improvements have been achieved. [86107] Mr. Jamieson: Supplementary Credit Approvals (SCA) are available for local authority run ports to help to fund essential safety and maintenance work. The following SCA allocations been made to those listed in the question: SCA allocations for 2000-01 issued 28 September 2001 £ _________________________________________________________________________________________________.

Torquay surrendered a £200,000 allocation in 2000-01 as the work planned could not be carried out due to two World War Two embarkation ramps being declared buildings of historic interest (Grade II). The final total allocation for 2000-01 was approximately £1.88 million. SCA allocation for 2001-02 issued 30 September 2002 £ _________________________________________________________________________________________________.

The Department confirms with the ports that the relevant work has been carried out. Since January 2001 Health and Safety Executive inspectors have visited the ports at Portsmouth, Scarborough, Sunderland, Ramsgate New Port, Torquay, Weymouth and Bristol. These visits were conducted as part of HSE's planned inspection programme, or to investigate accidents or complaints, and not directly related to the SCA funding.
