HC Deb 24 February 1959 vol 600 c135W
77. Mr. Idwal Jones

asked the President of the Board of Trade how many applications have been made by firms for sites in the Wrexham Development Area during the past three months; and how many have qualified for assistance under the Distribution of Industries (Finance) Act, 1958.

Mr. J. Rodgers

No applications for industrial development certificates for this area have been received during the past three months. In the six weeks since Wrexham qualified for assistance under the Act, five firms have made preliminary inquiries, but none has yet made a firm application.
