Mr. Edwin Wainwright

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he is aware that the rate of unemployed persons registered at the Mexborough and Wombwell employment exchanges is approximately double the national average; and what steps he is taking to encourage new industries to come into the Dearne Valley constituency.

I can assure the hon. Member that I am aware of the level of unemployment in Mexborough and Wombwell and I shall continue to encourage suitable firms to take advantage of the incentives to expand or locate new projects in this area.
