HC Deb 27 November 1973 vol 865 c87W
47. Mr. Barry Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Employment if he will set up a sheltered workshop in conjunction with the local authorities in the Shotton area ; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Dudley Smith

My right hon. Friend has no such plans at present. Currently the number of severely disabled people unemployed in the area in need of sheltered employment is very small and would not justify the establishment of a workshop. However, the needs of the area are being kept under constant review.
