HC Deb 10 May 1971 vol 817 c39W
97. Sir G. de Freitas

asked the Minister of State for Defence why the York Trailer Company Limited of Corby, Northamptonshire, were not invited to tender for trailers for the Armed Forces as other trailer firms were recently.

Mr. Ian Gilmour

The firm did not reply to our last invitation in August, 1969, nor did it put in a bid in response to five previous invitations. It was therefore concluded that it was no longer interested in our work.
