HC Deb 04 May 1971 vol 816 c323W
Mr. James Hamilton

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what steps he is taking to assist the development area of Bothwell in finding new jobs, in view of the letter sent to him by the hon. Member for Bothwell concerning the request of W. and H. Nelson Limited, Bellshill; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Anthony Grant

I am writing to the hon. Member. In addition to the full range of normal development area incentives, Bothwell will benefit from the extra assistance which is designed to attract new employment-creating industry into the West Central Scotland special development area.
