HC Deb 17 January 1972 vol 829 c27W
Mr. David Watkins

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry when he now expects the untenanted advance factory at Harelow, Stanley, County Durham, to be occupied; who will be the tenant; what will be manufactured there; how many male and female jobs will be provided; and when.

Mr. Anthony Grant

This factory has been allocated to Cumberland Fibres Ltd. for the throwing and knitting of nylon yarns. With full production employment is expected to reach 130, including 95 males. I understand that occupation is to start today.
