Mr. Richard Wainwright

asked the Secretary of State for Employment what is the average level of redundancy payments to each person made redundant in the wool textile industry in West Yorkshire over the past 12 months.

Figures are not available for this precise geographical and industrial category. For workers employed in textiles generally in the Yorkshire and Humberside region the average statutory redundancy payment made in the 12-month period to March 1980 was £327.
