Mr. David Marshall

asked the Minister for Trade how many bankruptcies there were in Glasgow in 1978, 1979, 1980, 1981 and to date in 1982.

Dr. Vaughan

The figures are as follows:

Number of sequestrations* in Glasgow
Year
1978 15
1979 11
1980 25
1981 23
1st half 1982 17
* Sequestrations apply to all individuals and partnerships and are roughly equivalent in Scottish law to bankruptcies in England and Wales.
