HC Deb 26 July 1968 vol 769 c279W
Mr. E. Rowlands

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in view of the serious loss of jobs and job opportunities to Cardiff and adjacent development areas as a result of the closure of Rolls-Royce, Cardiff, he will now withdraw the industrial development certificate he granted to Rolls-Royce for expansion at Bristol.

Mr. Dell

I am satisfied that the project for which an industrial development certificate was granted could not reasonably be undertaken except in the immediate area of Bristol.
