HC Deb 24 May 1979 vol 967 cc264-5W
Mr. Donald Stewart

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what steps he intends taking to ensure the continuation of the pig-processing industry in North-East Scotland; and what consultations he has had with the Scottish Development Agency regarding this matter.

Mr. Younger

As to my intentions, I would refer the hon. Member to the reply I gave yesterday to my hon. Friends the Members for Moray and Nairn (Mr. Pollock) and Banff (Mr. Myles) and to the reply which I have given today to my hon. Friend the Member for Aberdeen, South (Mr. Sproat). My Department and the Scottish Development Agency are both closely involved in consideration of this matter.—[Vol. 967, c. 149]
