HC Deb 23 September 1948 vol 456 c159W
122. Mr. D. Thomas

asked the President of the Board of Trade what steps are being taken to provide employment for the large number of workpeople who have been displaced on the ground of redundancy from the factories at the Rhigos Trading Estate, Hirwaun, and Aberdare.

Mr. Bottomley

I share my hon. Friend's anxiety about the employment situation at Hirwaun and Aberdare and we are doing our very best to find suitable tenants for the available factory space both on the Hirwaun Trading Estate and in the Grenfell factory at Aberdare.
