HC Deb 06 May 1971 vol 816 cc433-4W
Mr. Deakins

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what industries have notified him that they will increase their investment in Wales in the event of the United Kingdom joining the European Economic Community.

Mr. Anthony Grant

None, but I would not expect firms to notify me of such intentions. My impression is that industry generally is looking forward to the increased opportunities that would be presented by membership of the European Economic Community. Wales should share fully in these opportunities.
