HC Deb 30 July 1935 vol 304 c2461
21. Dr. WILLIAM McLEAN

asked the President of the Board of Trade when he will give to the House the results of the survey of industrial development in the United Kingdom during 1934; and whether these results will be related to the 1933 surveys, so as to indicate the trends and tendencies in development?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

The report on the Survey of Industrial Development for 1934, which is now being printed, will be published as a Stationery Office paper within the next week or so, and I will send my hon. Friend a copy. The particulars given will include comparisons with the material collected in respect of 1933.

Dr. McLEAN

In view of the importance of this report and this survey to town planning, road schemes and housing schemes, would the right hon. Gentleman take steps to see that they are communicated to his colleagues who are in charge of those developments?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

I have no doubt that they will be aware of the question and of the answer to it.
