Mr. John
asked the Secretary of State for Employment what was the number of redundancies announced by firms in Wales in the months October, November and December, 1970, and to date in January, 1971.
Mr. Dudley Smith
As all redundancies are not notified to my Department the relevant information is not comprehensive. However, records show that redundancies involving the following numbers of workpeople were notified in Wales:
| October, 1970 | 700 |
| Novermber, 1970 | 1,400 |
| December, 1970 | 400 |
| 1st to 20th January, 1971 | 1,500 |
