HC Deb 03 February 1948 vol 446 c249W
Mr. D. J. Williams

asked the Minister of Labour if any of the Remploy factories proposed for South Wales are to be affected by the decision to cut capital expenditure on factory construction; and what places are to be affected.

Mr. Isaacs

Building will be postponed for six months on projected factories at Abertillery, Ammanford, Bargoed, Cardiff, Ferndale, Mountain Ash, Neath, Newport, Pontypridd, Swansea and Tonypandy; and the position will be considered again at the end of that period. In the meantime provision to cover the needs of Cardiff, Pontypridd and Swansea will be made in the premises of the former Government Training Centre at Treforest and in the Swansea Centre.

Forward to
