HC Deb 15 July 1971 vol 821 c141W
53. Mr. Roy Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for Employment what re quests have been made by the West German Government for the provision of official assistance for the recruitment of workers in Great Britain for employment in the steel industry of West Germany.

Mr. Dudley Smith

Following recent talks between officials of my Department and the German Federal Institute of Labour, arrangements have been made for vacancies with West German firms likely to be of interest to British workers to be circulated to employment exchanges in this country. These arrangements will apply to steelworkers as to others.
