HC Deb 11 December 1968 vol 775 c182W
Mr. Gwynfor Evans

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will give his estimate of the proportion of forestry workers in Wales who may become redundant this winter; and what plans he has to ensure alternative employment for them.

Mr. George Thomas

About 3 per cent. of the total number employed by the Forestry Commission in Wales may be declared redundant by 31st March, 1969. I am in touch with the Department of Employment and Productivity about alternative employment.
