HC Deb 27 March 1956 vol 550 c177W
66. Mr. Skeffington

asked the Minister of Labour how many persons, male and female, have been dismissed from radio and television manufacture in Hayes, Middlesex; how many have been placed in other work; and how many are without work.

Mr. Iain Macleod

According to my information, about 300 men and 430 women, including 200 part-time evening workers, have so far been discharged, and a further 300 men and 60 women have been given notice. The Hayes Employment Exchange has placed 111 men and 58 women in other work, and it is known that many others have been placed by other Employment Exchanges or found work for themselves. On Saturday, 24th March, 40 men and 48 women (including 39 part time workers) were registered as wholly unemployed.
