HC Deb 28 October 1975 vol 898 c468W
52. Mr. Robert Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for Employment how many people in Scotland are employed in the motor vehicle industry directly in the manufacture of vehicles and indirectly on the manufacture of motor vehicle component parts by companies whose registered head office is situated in England.

Mr. John Fraser

At June 1974, the latest date for which figures are available, there were 21,400 workers in Scotland employed in motor vehicle manufacturing, Minimum List Heading 381 of the Standard Industrial Classification. It is not possible to identify within this total the number employed by companies whose registered head office is in England, nor is it possible to identify separately the numbers employed in the manufacture of motor vehicle component parts who are included within other minimum list headings.
