Mr. Willey

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will make a further statement on the two projects in Sunderland which were being considered under the Local Employment Act on the terms of revised requirements.

Mr. Erroll

Assistance under the Act has been offered to one of these projects: the other application has been rejected.

Mr. Willey

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will make a further statement on the two projects in Sunderland for which assistance had been approved in June, 1961, but which were in abeyance in March, 1962.

Mr. Erroll

Building has already started on one of these projects, which the company concerned is financing from its own resources. The other firm's application for assistance is still under consideration.
