HC Deb 03 May 1960 vol 622 c70W
Mr. Ness Edwards

asked the President of the Board of Trade what steps have been taken under the Local Employment Act, 1960, to provide new employment in the upper end of the Rhymney Valley.

Mr. Maudling

As a result of the publicity given to the provisions of the Local Employment Act, we have already received several inquiries from this area, and I hope that these will result in firm applications for assistance under the Act.
