HC Deb 09 April 1984 vol 58 c109W
Mr. Barry Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he proposes the resiting of jobcentres from prime street positions to other locations; if he proposes the closure of jobcentres in Wales; how many jobcentre staff are estimated to lose their jobs; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Nicholas Edwards

The development of the employment services falls within the responsibility of the Manpower Services Commission. The commission has yet to consider detailed proposals for the future of the jobcentre network throughout Great Britain.
