HC Deb 30 July 1964 vol 699 c396W
Mr. Wingfield Digby

asked the Minister of Transport what has been the total Government financial support to the shipbuilding and marine engineering industries, calculated on the basis comparable with the assistance given to the civil aviation industry.

Mr. Marples

The assistance given to the civil aircraft manufacturing industry is on a basis which is so different from that given to the shipbuilding and marine engineering industries that no comparison on a common basis is practicable.
