HC Deb 29 June 1948 vol 452 c191W
63. Mr. Mainwaring

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he has considered the communication from Rhondda Urban Council and other neighbouring authorities dealing with the fear of growing unemployment and need for establishing new industries in their midst; and what measures he proposes to take to deal with the situation.

Mr. Belcher

This communication is being carefully considered. I cannot yet say whether any measures to help the Rhondda are open to us, other than those we are already taking, but I can assure my hon. Friend that the Government are most anxious to secure the highest possible level of employment.
