HC Deb 17 May 1971 vol 817 c212W
Mr. Leadbitter

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry how many firm inquiries for industrial development in Hartlepool he has received since investment grants were terminated by Her Majesty's Government.

Mr. Anthony Grant

Inquiries seldom specify a particular town, but Hartlepool was suggested to 15 companies seeking locations in the Northern Region.
