HC Deb 22 October 1993 vol 230 cc352-3W
Mr. Fraser

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment what account his Department took in its decision to grant an employment agency licence to Solo Employment Agency, of that agency's relationship to the former Noel Employment Ltd. in respect of(a) the address of the premises of the agency and (b) the identity of the directors of the agency.

Mr. Michael Forsyth

The Department has granted a licence under the Employment Agencies Act 1973 to Solo Appointments (Hammersmith) Ltd. The premises of the agency were formerly those of a branch of Noel Employment Ltd. One of the directors of the agency was formerly a director of Noel Employment Ltd. The Department took account of all relevant information and found no grounds for refusing to grant the licence.
