HC Deb 16 March 1970 vol 798 c3W
70. Mr. James Johnson

asked the Minister of Technology what progress he has made in drawing up his programme of Government advance factories for intermediate areas; and whether he will include Kingston-upon-Hull in his future list.

Mr. Carmichael

We hope shortly to be able to make an announcement about advance factories in the intermediate areas. As my hon. Friend said in the Adjournment debate on 3rd March the needs of the Hull area are being borne in mind. I cannot say more at this stage.—[Vol. 797, c. 362–82.]
