HC Deb 22 October 1945 vol 414 c1671
83. Mr. Hector Hughes

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware that the M.A.P. factory at Tullos, Aberdeen, is well equipped with high-class and modern machinery which is not being used, but could, and should, be used for peace-time production; and what steps he intends to take to put the factory to full use.

Sir S. Cripps

The Ministry of Supply and of Aircraft Production will cease to require this factory at the end of December, 1945. A number of industrialists have expressed an interest in the factory, and I am hopeful that it will be allocated before the end of the year.
