§ 92. Mr. Edwin Wainwrightasked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware that, in the Mexborough Employment Exchange area, unemployment is in the region of 6 per cent.; and what plans he has for encouraging industrialists to bring male dominated jobs into the area.
§ Mrs. Gwyneth DunwoodyI am aware of the high rate of unemployment in the Mexborough area. Since the beginning of 1967 14 industrial development certificates for over 270,000 sq. ft. have been approved in the Mexborough/Gold-thorpe Local Employment Exchange areas, and I will continue to operate the i.d.c. policy liberally there.
