Luke Pollard: The German owner of the Barden factory in Plymouth has announced that the precision ball bearing plant and 400 jobs will go, and it blames Brexit for the closure. Will the Secretary of State join me and Plymouth’s Conservative MPs in encouraging Barden’s German owner, Schaeffler, to change its mind and keep this profitable plant open?
Thomas Tugendhat: ...downstream. Let me take Tonbridge as an example. The new 320-metre flood wall at Avebury Avenue shows a local solution that works. Following restoration of the ground height, 80 homes in the Barden Road area, which were flooded in 2013, are now less at risk from the river. However, the scheme works only because the new walls work in conjunction with existing defences at Leigh and in...

Stephen Metcalfe: I am afraid that time is limited; I am sorry, but no. The people I want to thank the most are the staff, the management—particularly Jon Barden and Georgina Clarke—and, of course, the unions. Without their commitment, the business might well have closed months ago. Instead, it had time to search for a buyer and to explore a range of options that might have led to the securing of its...
Alison Seabeck: ...city will continue to press our case. We have Babcock Marine-now much enhanced by the addition to the company of VT-as well as many other defence-related firms such as Atlantic Inertial Systems and Barden Corporation UK Ltd. Those companies have found the recession tough at times, but they, like other companies across the south-west, had begun to see progress as the economy began to grow...

Gary Streeter: ...those of our competitors in Europe, the United States, Japan and elsewhere. I shall focus my remarks on a success story in Plymouth. We have a company on the Estover industrial estate called the Barden Corporation. It makes high-precision ball bearings. Hon. Members may find that a dull subject—[Interruption.] I should be delighted if they considered ball bearings an exciting product....
Gary Streeter: ...currently at 5·5 per cent.—we hope that they will go lower yet—and with a competitive pound, that is the right framework that our businesses are looking for. The managing director of the Barden Corporation, which is an excellent company in Plymouth, employs 250 people, makes high-precision ball bearings and exports them all over the world, told me only a week ago that it was now...
Mr David Hinchliffe: ...cars, of patients who suffer from such diseases face three bus journeys to the far side of Leeds to the Seacroft hospital. As a result of the closure of Snapethorpe hospital and in particular the Barden ward, the excellent convalescent facilities at that hospital no longer exist. Wakefield health authority has taken no action to provide convalescent facilities elsewhere in its area. That...
Mr Peter Pike: ...still exist at Walshaw high school, Briercliffe primary school, Casterton Avenue primary school, Rosehill infants school, Gawthorpe high school, which needs an additional science laboratory, and Barden high school, which needs a home economics unit. It would be far better for the Government to spend money on those schools than to assist pensioners who do not really need help and who should...
Dr John Marek: ...years the public were denied unrestricted access to some of the most beautiful parts of the country such parts of the Devonshire Estate in Wharfedale in North Yorkshire including Simons Seat and Barden Moor and Barden Fell. In recollects with pleasure its success in gaining access to those and other areas by virtue of its campaigns. This National Council has noted with concern that...
Mr Peter Pike: ...in Burnley with other projects are also placed in jeopardy. Hargher Clough county junior school needs a replacement kitchen. Burnley Wood Top Church of England school needs a scullery and Burnley Barden county infant school is in need of a connecting passageway and the refurbishment of its toilets. Several projects need to be done at Burnley college. The same can be said throughout the...
Mr Peter Pike: ...to other estates in the town. In one part— Naples avenue — people are gravely concerned about the council's inability to modernise those houses. Hargher Clough is another prewar estate, as are Barden Casterton Avenue, Old Palace House and Bleak House estates. Bleak House estate is in the ward that I represented and the council was forced to sell 112 houses to Wimpey's. The council...
Mr Arthur Blenkinsop: ...'s judgment. I was asked in Committee to give some evidence of the value of this provision. On the spur of the moment I offered some individual cases on the question of access. I suggested Barden Fell and Barden Moor in the West Riding of Yorkshire. I have had further evidence from both the Ramblers' Association and the CPRE to support the point of view that, although no order had to be...
Dr David Owen: ...organised following a visit from one of the city council's officials to America. In April, 1966, an i.d.c. was granted to Gleason Works Ltd. and in July, 1966, one was granted for a factory for Barden Corporation (U.K.) Ltd. That is only three i.d.c.s in a period of nearly eight years. If we are going to attract enough industry—and often these employ only 150 to 200 men—to provide...
Mr Geoffrey Rippon: ...agree readily that the Government's performance in this sphere of activity has been relatively good. Certainly we are grateful in my constituency for the advance factory at Haltwhistle, where the Barden Mill Pit closure will create difficulties in the foreseeable future. There again, I would tell any industrialists who are thinking of moving North that they could not do better than come to...
Mr George Darling: ...the question of unemployment which exists at the moment but, to answer the question which was put by the hon. Lady, new projects which have recently been announced for the city include those of Barden Corporation, manufacturers of ball-bearings, Gleasons, manufacturers of gear cutting blades, and Wrigley and Company Ltd. These projects and other smaller schemes—I used the same...
Mr Norman Dodds: ...County Council a lot of pious hopes about somebody doing something. It could do something. The Kent County Council has got land, but it is always preaching to someone else. There is a farmer called Barden who lives at Lone Barn Farm, Charing, near Ashford. For many years until 1956 he had a place where thirty to fifty caravans were kept. The place was closed down by an application of the...
