HC Deb 10 September 1941 vol 374 c179
39. Mr. Wootton-Davies

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Supply when he expects to complete his negotiations with the steelmakers to give munition makers a break clause in their contract, which has now been under consideration for a considerable time?

The Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Supply (Mr. Harold Macmillan)

Representatives of the steel makers have agreed to the principle of giving to munition makers a break clause in their contracts, and it is expected that the remaining difficulties will be settled very soon.
