HC Deb 17 May 1971 vol 817 c214W
Mr. John

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry (1) what was the number of jobs which were expected to be created in the Pontypridd travel-to-work area in June, 1970; and what number is in prospect now;

(2) what was the number of jobs expected to be created in the Llantrisant travel-to-work area in June, 1970; and what is the number in prospect at present.

Mr. Anthony Grant

At mid-May, 1971, 2,100 jobs were expected to arise over the next four years in the Ponty-pridd Group of Employment Exchange Areas, which includes Llantrisant, in authorised new industrial buildings, and industrial buildings taken over by manufacturing industry. The number at June, 1970 for the then succeeding four years was 1,500. I regret that separate figures for Llantrisant are not available.
