HC Deb 09 February 1971 vol 811 c126W
Mr. Mudd

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what proposals he has to reduce the rising level of unemployment in West Cornwall.

Mr. Anthony Grant

Unemployment overall in West Cornwall has not risen during the past year. The area will benefit from the measures announced by my right hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer on 27th October, 1970, and the Department will do all that it can to encourage the creation of additional employment opportunities there.
