HC Deb 23 May 1977 vol 932 c365W
Mr. Gerry Fowler

asked the Secretary of State for Industry (1) how many new jobs will be created, or existing jobs preserved, in boiler making during each year of the construction of the Drax B power station;

(2) how many new jobs he estimates will be created, and how many existing jobs preserved, in turbine and generator manufacture during each year of the construction of the Drax B power station.

Mr. Cryer

It is not possible to estimate the precise number of jobs likely to be preserved on turbine generator and boiler manufacture over the period of construction of the Drax B power station until the requirements of the Generating Board are known.
