HC Deb 27 March 1979 vol 965 c253
14. Dr. Edmund Marshall

asked the Secretary of State for Employment whether he will postpone the date on which the unemployment benefit office at Knottingley, West Yorkshire, is due to be reduced to part-time operation.

Mr. Golding

Yes, Sir.

Dr. Marshall

I thank my hon. Friend for this stay of execution for the unemployment benefit office at Knottingley, where 535 members of the public called in the last week for which figures were available. Will he meet me soon so that we may have a full discussion on the future of this office before any further decisions are reached?

Mr. Golding

Certainly. I shall be delighted to meet my hon. Friend and any others whom he may wish to bring to talk about this situation.
