HC Deb 13 December 1962 vol 669 cc94-5W
59. Mrs. McLaughlin

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if Her Majesty's Government will prepare a programme of public works, in regard to the installations in Northern Ireland for which Her Majesty's Government are responsible, to be undertaken immediately in order to reduce the unemployment level there; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Brooke

There are relatively few installations in Northern Ireland for which Her Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom is responsible. For the greater part, public works are the responsibility of the Government of Northern Ireland.
