HC Deb 14 December 1970 vol 808 c244W
Mr. Adam Hunter

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will review his policy on the granting of industrial development certificates, in view of the loss of employment created by the closure of the Winterthur Silks Limited factory in Dunfermline, Fife; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Anthony Grant

Industrial development certificates and a wide range of financial inducements are available to firms providing new employment in the Dunfermline area, and the Department's officials in the office for Scotland will continue their efforts to interest industrialists in the advantages of locating factories in Scotland including Dunfermline.
