HC Deb 19 March 1964 vol 691 c208W
45. Mr. W. Hamilton

asked the Secretary of State for Industry, Trade and Regional Development why he refused financial help to a firm of boat-builders in Aberdour, Fife, when the help would have enabled the firm to provide additional male employment in the area.

Mr. Heath

I was not satisfied, after consulting B.O.T.A.C., that the help which the firm sought would enable them to provide continuing employment and thereby further the purposes of the Acts.
