§ 80. Mr. Spearingasked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will estimate the number of new jobs that have been created within the area of the London Docklands Development Corporation since its creation.
§ Sir George YoungI refer the hon. Gentleman to the written answer I gave him on 28 November 1984, at column 515, which contains the latest available figures.
The LDDC is, however, currently analysing the results of an employment survey commissioned earlier this year. It expects to have more up-to-date information in a few weeks’ time and I shall write to the hon. Member as soon as this becomes available.
