HC Deb 19 March 1963 vol 674 c37W
80. Mr. Awbery

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he is aware of the effects the rundown of the three Services in Malta will have upon the unemployment problem on the island; and if he will arrange that the introduction of new industries to absorb the redundant personnel will keep pace with the rundown of the services and thus prevent an extension of the prevailing difficulties.

Mr. Sandys

I would refer the hon. Member to my reply to the hon. Member for Accrington (Mr. H. Hynd) on 5th February to which I have at present nothing to add.
