HC Deb 17 March 1969 vol 780 c5W
51. Mr. Donnelly

asked the Secretary of State for Employment and Productivity what estimate she has made of the percentage of insured persons who will become unemployed at local employment exchanges following the closure of the Royal Naval Air Station, Brawdy.

Mr. Fernyhough

Some 350 civilian workers or 46 per cent. of the insured population of Haverfordwest are currently employed at the Royal Naval Air Station, Brawdy. It is not possible so far in advance to make any reliable assessment of the numbers who might register as unemployed following the closure in 1971–72.
