HC Deb 10 July 1968 vol 768 c74W
Mr. Will Owen

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will take immediate steps to publicise the establishment of the aluminium smelter works, at Lynemouth, Northumberland as a means of stimulating interest and attracting new industries to South-East Northumberland; and whether he will make a statement.

Mrs. Gwyneth Dunwoody:

The reply to Questions made by my right hon. Friend on 29th May and the announcement made by Alcan themselves have already received considerable publicity, and I would expect industry to be well aware of the proposal to site this major new industrial project in South-East Northumberland.—[Vol. 765, c. 1797– 1800.]
