HC Deb 20 May 1985 vol 79 c290W
Mr. D. E. Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what proportion of the leading 1,000 companies in the United Kingdom had their headquarters in Wales from 1974 to 1984.

Mr. Nicholas Edwards

The hon. Gentleman is presumably referring to the companies listed in the publication entitled "The Times 1,000". The addresses of the headquarters of these companies are listed in this publication which is published annually and copies of which are in the Library.
