§ Mr. Bodyasked the Minister of Labour whether he is satisfied with the existing arrangements for employment exchanges in the new town of Basildon; and whether he will make a statement.
§ Mr. Iain MacleodThe population of the new town of Basildon is at present served by Laindon and the Pitsea Employment Exchanges which are approximately one mile to a mile and a half from the new town centre. I am satisfied that the existing arrangements are adequate for the present, but I propose to review the situation as the new town develops.
