Mr. Crawford
asked the Secretary of State for the Environment how many of the 133,248 jobs known to the Location of Offices Bureau to have been moved out of London in 1973–74 were moved to Scotland.
Mr Oakes
The Location of Offices Bureau reports that since it was set up in 1963 firms which are clients of the bureau have moved or decided to move 133,248 jobs from central London. 320 of these moves are to Scotland. The figures do not, of course cover dispersal of Government Departments.
