HC Deb 17 January 1972 vol 829 cc20-1W
Mr. Geraint Morgan

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry whether he is aware of the increasing number of redundancies in factories in Denbigh and of the slackening off in recent months of demands from industrialist for sites in the town; and whether he will make a statement as to the action which he proposes to take to remedy this staff of affairs.

Mr. Anthony Grant

I am confident that the many measures the Government have taken to secure faster growth in the economy and consequently expand employment will benefit Denbigh along with other places. In December the town's unemployment rate at 3 per cent. was one of the lowest in Wales.
