HC Deb 26 November 1936 vol 318 c558
61. Mr. E. J. WILLIAMS

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that a firm sent its chief executive to Lithalan Products, Limited, Bridgend, Glamorgan, with a view of taking over the entire sales of the British Empire, but stipulated that they must sign an agreement to build a factory on the London area within three years; and whether the Government propose to take steps to prevent this Special Area being further impaired by the migration of thriving business?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

I have no information on this matter, but I am making inquiries. I would be glad to receive any further particulars which the hon. Member has on the subject.
