HC Deb 11 November 1971 vol 825 cc196-7W
32. Mrs. RenÉe Short

asked the Secretary of State for Employment when he intends to take action to reduce the number of unemployed in the Wolver hampton area.

Mr. Dudley Smith

The Government have already taken a large number of measures which are designed to expand the national economy. When they have taken effect, unemployment in Wolverhampton, as in other areas, should come down. Where my Department is concerned, staff in employment exchanges are continually making every effort to help unemployed people to find jobs.
