HC Deb 30 June 1981 vol 7 cc324-5W
Q40. Mr. McNamara

asked the Prime Minister if, in view of the impending closure of the Nypro Works, South Humberside, she will take steps to increase employment opportunities in the area.

Mr. Whitelaw

I have been asked to reply.

I understand that no final announcement has been made on the closure of the company's plant at Flixborough. Firms investing in the Scunthorpe travel-to-work area are eligible for a wide range of regional incentives following its upgrading to development area status last year.
