Mr. Abse

asked the Secretary of State for Wales whether, in view of the reduction by Imperial Chemical Industries Fibres Limited, Pontypool, of 535 jobs, he will initiate inter-departmental discussions with a view to creating alternative employment for the men affected.

Mr. Peter Thomas

All Departments concerned, including my own, are already in close touch with one another about the position.
