HC Deb 08 June 1972 vol 838 c148W
Q18. Mr. William Hamilton

asked the Prime Minister if he is satisfied with the co-ordination between the Department of Trade and Industry and the Department of Employment in the field of manufactured imports and their effect on employment prospects in the United Kingdom.

Mr. Maudling

I have been asked to reply.

Yes. The Department of Trade and Industry is responsible both for questions relating to imports and for the implications for employment in the regions. The Department of Trade and Industry consults the Department of Employment as necessary on these matters.
