§ Mr. Mackieasked the Secretary of State for Employment how many factories in the London Borough of Enfield have closed down or reduced their activities and the number of employees affected over the past 10 years, or the latest convenient period.
§ Mr. Chichester-ClarkAs my Department's local office areas do not coincide with the borough boundaries it would be impracticable to give all the information requested. However, according to my Department's records, in the period 1st January 1966 to 31st January 1973 inclusive, 40 manufacturing establishments in the Enfield employment office area either closed or reduced their labour force. 2,310 workpeople were affected.
