asked the Minister of Labour what consideration he has given to a letter sent to him by the Blyth and District Employment Committee on 6th November regarding the need for new industries in south-east Northumberland; and what action he proposes to take.

Mr. Hare

No doubt The hon. Member has in mind the Resolution passed by the Committee in October, which I have brought to the attention of the Board of Trade. My right hon.
