8. Mr. Rhys Davies

asked the Minister of Labour whether he can give any information as to the formation of a site company for Lancashire to operate in the industrially depressed areas in that county?

Mr. E. Brown

I have no direct information in regard to this matter, although I understand that the question of forming such a company is under consideration by local interests.

Mr. Davies

Is the right hon. Gentleman keeping in touch with the Lancashire Industrial Development Council?

Mr. Brown

Yes, in close touch.
