HC Deb 13 March 1978 vol 946 cc9-10W
Mr. Park

asked the Secretary of State for Trade how many instances of insolvent trading by companies in the Coventry area have been reported to his Department in the last four years; how many bankruptcies of firms have similarly been reported; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Clinton Davis

As I informed my hon. Friend the Member for Blaydon (Mr. Woof) today, regional statistics of insolvencies are not compiled, in view of the considerable difficulties and the disproportionate expense which would be involved.
