HC Deb 14 June 1972 vol 838 c332W
Mr. McGuire

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what steps he proposes to take to reduce the level of unemployment in the Skelmersdale New Town.

Mr. Anthony Grant

Skelmersdale will benefit from the general stimulation to the economy already provided by the Government and the proposals now before the House in the Industry Bill designed to provide powerful inducements to encourage industrial development in assisted areas.
