Mr. Cummings: To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what measures he is taking to assist workers who have been
declared redundant by the Courtaulds textile factory in Peterlee; and if he will make a statement. [144296]
Mr. Caborn: I was very disappointed to hear of the job losses announced by Courtaulds Ladieswear at Peterlee. The protocol
established by the north-east textiles task force was immediately brought into effect to ensure immediate access to rapid response
funding. A strategic response group was set up, led by Easington district council, to co-ordinate the resources available. The
Employment Service has the necessary arrangements in place to provide advice and guidance to the work force. I understand that
opportunities exist in the area for alternative employment and that various local employers have visited the site to present group
sessions to staff.
