HC Deb 20 January 1972 vol 829 c221W
47. Mr. Terry Davis

asked the Secretary of State for Employment why the Bromsgrove and Redditch Local Employment Committee has not met since 20th May, 1971, in view of the increase in unemployment in both towns.

Mr. Dudley Smith

Owing to the reconstitution of the Committee unfortunately taking longer than was expected it was not possible to hold its inaugural meeting in the autumn, as had been intended. This will now take place on 27th January.
