HC Deb 31 July 1961 vol 645 c120W
99. Miss Herbison

asked the Minister of Labour (1) what alternative employment will be provided for those workers who become redundant as the result of the proposed closure of the factory of Hollins and Company Limited, New-house;

(2) what action he is taking to ensure that the workers recently declared redundant in North Lanarkshire will obtain alternative employment.

Mr. Hare

Arrangements have been made for advance registration of the redundant workers and my local officers are doing everything possible to find suitable alternative work for those registering. As regards the finding of a new occupant for the Hollins factory, perhaps the hon. Lady will await the reply of my right hon. Friend the President of the Board of Trade to her Question on Thursday.
