HC Deb 04 December 1979 vol 975 c145W
Mr. Dalyell

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will specify the action he is taking, as a result of his meeting on Tuesday 27 November, with representatives of both trades unions and management of the Scottish knitwear industry, on the problems which have recently caused the loss of 1,000 jobs, out of 15,000 jobs in the industry.

Mr. Younger

Along with other hon. Members, I listened to the views expressed by representatives of the Scottish knitwear industry. With my colleagues, I am prepared to consider any specific proposals addressed to the Government.
