Mr. Mort

asked the President of the Board of Trade what steps he has taken to alleviate the unemployment in Swansea amongst adults and school leavers.

Mr. J. Rodgers

The factory to be built near Swansea for the Pressed Steel Company is the largest Government- financed factory which the Board of Trade have ever undertaken in a Development Area, and is expected eventually to provide about 4,000 new jobs. Other firms seeking a new location have also had Swansea brought to their attention, and we shall continue to bear its needs in mind.
