HC Deb 05 March 1964 vol 690 c253W
54. Mr. Spriggs

asked the Secretary of State for Industry, Trade and Regional Development if he will schedule St. Helens as part of the Merseyside Development Area.

Mr. D. Price

Unemployment in St. Helens, whether present or prospective, would not justify my right hon. Friend in listing it now as a Development District.
