Commons Chamber Mr Speaker
    
        
    
    
    
    
    
        
        
        
            Mr Speaker 
        
    
        
    
        I am pleased to say that they will also have heard the single sentence from the hon. Member for New Forest East, and I feel sure that they will have appreciated it.
 Mr Frank Roy (Motherwell and Wishaw) (Lab)
    
        
    
    
    
    
    
        
        
        
            Mr Frank Roy (Motherwell and Wishaw) (Lab) 
        
    
        
    
        Last week, on a visit to my local Remploy factory in Wishaw, I met some disabled people who are genuinely terrified that they are about to lose their jobs and see their factory close. Will the Leader of the House give time for a debate on that very serious subject?
 Sir George Young
        
    
    
    
    
    
        
        
        
            Sir George Young 
        
    
        
    
        Of course I understand the concern of anybody who is confronted with the possible loss of their job. I will raise the matter with my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills and ask him to write to the hon. Gentleman.
