HC Deb 16 October 1968 vol 770 cc114-5W
49. Mr. Barnett

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will reverse the decision to transfer the Textile Design Centre from the North to London; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. William Rodgers

This is a matter for the Textile Council but we are in broad agreement with their view that the decision is in the best interests of the industry.
