HC Deb 21 November 1955 vol 546 c88W
Mr. Forman

asked the President of the Board of Trade, in view of the decision of the Craigpark Cable Company, Flemington Street, Glasgow, to close down their factory in December, 1955, with the consequent paying off of 350 employees, what steps he proposes to take in introducing a new industry in the factory.

Mr. P. Thorneycroft

My officers bring this factory to the attention of industrialists who are seeking new quarters. I understand that only three men and six women of the 281 workers so far declared redundant remain on the register of unemployed.
