Mr. Jenkinsasked the Minister for the Co-ordination of Defence whether he can state the total value of the orders for steel wire ropes placd by the Service Departments during the current year; and the total value of the orders for steel wire ropes placed in South Wales and Monmouthshire during the same period?
§ Sir T. InskipThe total value of the orders for steel wire rope placed by the Service Departments during the current financial year is £182,514. I regret that it is not possible to give the value of the orders placed in South Wales and Monmouthshire during the same period without an undue amount of labour.
