HC Deb 19 June 1928 vol 218 cc1570-1
2. Mr. DAY

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether any agreement has been reached between the Treasury and the Air Ministry to enable the erection of an experimental station for the rotating loop-direction finding system at Orfordness, and have the contracts for the erection of this temporary station been placed?

Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTER

A decision has not yet been reached, and contracts have therefore not been made.

Mr. DAY

Can the right hon. Gentleman tell us what is holding up the decision between the Treasury and the Air Ministry?

Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTER

I think that question had better be addressed to the Financial Secretary to the Treasury.
