HC Deb 08 December 1966 vol 737 c364W
115. Mr. Ryan

asked the Minister of Labour whether he is aware of the uncertainty caused in the engineering trades in West London by the decline of engineering employment in the area; and whether he will institute an inquiry into it.

Mr. Gunter

Unfilled vacancies in the engineering industries in West London have fallen in recent months, but still substantially exceed the number of unemployed engineering workers. I do not propose to institute an enquiry.
