HC Deb 18 November 1985 vol 87 c22W
Mr. Thurnham

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry how many jobs have been created in the Bolton area since June 1983 as a result of his Department's special measures.

Mr. Peter Morrison

Three hundred and forty-three jobs are expected to be created as a result of regional selective assistance, and 54 as a result of investment grants associated with the business improvement services. Figures are not readily available for the other schemes operated by the Department.
