§ 57. Mr. James Johnsonasked the Secretary of State for Employment and Productivity what action she proposes to take to relieve the unemployment in Hull and district, which is slowly rising while unfilled vacancies are falling.
§ Mr. DellMy local officers will continue to do all they can to help those who are unemployed to find jobs and will offer training opportunities where appropriate. My right hon. Friend the Minister of Technology proposes to designate North Humberside as an intermediate area when the Local Employment Bill 383W comes into force. Intermediate area incentives should do much to alleviate the economic problems of Hull.
