Employment Exchanges (Closure)

HC Deb 11 June 1974 vol 874 c496W

Mrs. Winifred Ewing

asked the Secretary of State for Employment what notice is required to be given to the public when a local employment exchange is to be closed.

Mr. John Fraser

There is no statutory requirement to give notice of impending closure of a local employment exchange. It is the usual custom, however, to publicize closure for at least 14 days prior to the event.
