HC Deb 06 June 1935 vol 302 c2054
64. Sir IAN MACPHERSON(for Sir J. WALLACE)

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Air whether some of the constructional work on the new aero planes is to be carried out in idle dock yards; and, if so, whether the Rosyth naval base will be favourably considered in that connection?

Sir P. SASSOON

So far as can be foreseen, the constructional work on new aeroplanes to meet expansion requirements will be with in the existing capacity of the aircraft industry. I am, however, grateful to my hon. Friend for his suggestion. Which will be borne in mind.
