HC Deb 29 November 1967 vol 755 c127W
Mr. Kelley

asked the President of the Board of Trade in view of the proposed closure of Bentley Colliery, what plans he is making to ensure that alternative employment is available for the work-people displaced.

Mr. Darling

In considering applications for industrial development certificates we will take into account any loss of existing employment opportunities should Bentley Colliery close.
