§ 39. Mr. Mikardoasked the Secretary of State for Employment and Productivity what will be the effects on the employment situation in Watford of the threatened closure of S. G. Brown Limited; and whether she will make a statement.
§ Mr. FernyhoughThe closure of S. G. Brown Limited should have little effect on the employment situation in Watford. There is a wide choice of alternative jobs for those workers made redundant, either in Watford or in areas within reasonable daily travelling distance, where shortages exist for the sort of skills likely to be released by this firm.
