HC Deb 17 November 1937 vol 329 c395
46. Mr. Jenkins

asked the Minister for the Co-ordination of Defence the number and cost of agency factories, and additions to existing plant of private manufacturers financed by the Government, under the Defence programme in South Wales?

Sir T. Inskip

Three factories, of the type to which I understand the hon. Member to refer, financed by the Government, have been or are in the process of being established in South Wales at a cost of £525,000. It is regretted that figures for additions to existing plant of private manufacturers in particular areas cannot be given without an undue amount of labour.
