HC Deb 24 February 1959 vol 600 c137W
Mr. Hector Hughes

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will publish in HANSARD the text of the letter which he wrote in February, 1959, to 50,000 managing directors drawing their attention to the assistance the Government are prepared to give to firms setting up factories in Aberdeen and the Highlands, indicating to whom the letters were sent.

Mr. J. Rodgers

I presume that the hon. and learned Member is referring to the letter which I sent on 16th January. The text was published in the Board of Trade Journal, in the issue of 23rd January, and copies have been placed in the Library. I will send the hon. and learned Member a copy of the letter which went to almost every company with 25 or more employees.

Forward to
