HC Deb 21 March 1983 vol 39 cc341-2W
Mr. Gordon Wilson

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many new factory units and how many square feet of factory space have been built by the Scottish Development Agency since its inception in 1975; and what is the level of occupation on these units at the latest available date.

Mr. Alexander Fletcher

The information is not available in the precise form requested. However, since its inception the Scottish Development Agency has completed 385 factories covering 446,000 square metres. Of the total factory space which the Agency administers and which is available to let some 9.1 per cent. is vacant.
