HC Deb 24 June 1959 vol 607 cc134-5W
46. Mr. McInnes

asked the Minister of Labour what consultations he had with the British Transport Commission to ensure that the decision on the future of Cowlairs and St. Rollox railway workshops does not aggravate the unemployment situation in Glasgow.

Mr. Iain Macleod

I understand that the British Transport Commission's modernisation policy will result in some reorganisation of their workshops in Scotland over the next two years, but it is not possible for them at this stage to say what will be the effect in Glasgow.
