companies qualifying for grant-in-aid (or just "grant-aid") Explanation: It is a special price set up by a local authority wishing to attract manufacturing companies (and therefore employment) to their area. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-07-05 08:57:58 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- In the 1970s and 1980s many \"incentive packages\" were put together to attract manufacturing companies to the North of England, where there was extremely high unemployment after shipyard and steel plant closures. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-07-05 09:01:13 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- In a similar manner, if you move to a town where there are many empty dwellings, you may be offered three months rent-free, or guaranteed lack of rent increase, and such-like. |
