HC Deb 05 March 1964 vol 690 c255W
65. Sir D. Robertson

asked the Secretary of State for Industry, Trade and Regional Development how many new light industries have been established by his Department in Caithness and Sutherland since 1959; where they are located; and how many persons are employed in them.

Mr. D. Price

It depends what my hon. Friend means by light industries. Since 8th October, 1959, five new projects have been established in Caithness and Sutherland employing over 100 people. Two of the projects were in Wick, two in Thurso and one at Brora.
