HC Deb 11 May 1992 vol 207 c38W
25. Mr. Dafis

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what measures are currently being taken to respond to the economic difficulties of north Pembrokeshire, resulting from the proposed closure of Royal navy armaments depot, Trecwn.

26. Mr. Ainger

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what measures he is taking to relieve unemployment in the Pembroke constituency.

Mr. David Hunt

I established the west Wales task force and a strategy group, which I chair, in January. Since then I have announced the allocation of £4.7 million for a range of projects which will develop the industrial and economic infrastructure of west Wales. The task force has commissioned consultants to draw up a five year economic development plan for the area and this report, to which I will give urgent and careful consideration, will be available in the summer.
