That this House welcomes the significant co-operation and partnership between the public and private sectors in the North West region to develop proposals, involving an initial investment of £500 million of which the majority is private sector investment, for a Media Enterprise Zone in Greater Manchester which will create 8,000 to 10,000 jobs for the North West, drawing on the extensive creative and business skills within the region; and calls on the BBC to confirm its decision to implement the Greater Manchester relocation announced in principle in December 2004 at its meeting on 14th June, and to select one of the two remaining bids as the preferred option to ensure that the relocation takes place.
