HC Deb 04 February 1965 vol 705 c317W
84. Mr. Woodburn

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that the West Quarter factory of Imperial Chemical Industries has been closed down and about 342 workers rendered redundant; and, in view of the fact that this was a development area, what plans he has for a new industry to take over.

Mr. Darling

The factory is not due to close until the end of this year. Board of Trade officials in Scotland are in touch with the company about its future use.
