HC Deb 07 February 1961 vol 634 c30W
76. Mr. Willey

asked the President of the Board of Trade how many fewer men are employed in the Government-financed factories in Sunderland than were employed twelve months ago; and what factors have caused this fall in the numbers employed.

Mr. N. Macpherson:

In November, 1960, employment of men in Board of Trade factories in Sunderland was about 180 less than in November, 1959. It is impossible to identify any particular factors likely to have produced this small overall reduction.
