HC Deb 26 November 1951 vol 494 cc851-2
8. Mr. Cyril Bence

asked the Minister of Supply whether he will give an assurance that the markets for engineering products, built up over the last six years, and now exposed to German and Japanese competition, will not be jeopardised by the re-armament programme.

Mr. Sandys

Every effort is made to place defence contracts in such a way as to cause the least possible interference with exports.
