HC Deb 31 January 1977 vol 925 c16W
Mr. Edge

asked the Secretary of State for Industry what consideration has been given to the West Midlands as a site for the Aerospace Commission; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Les Huckfield

It is primarily for the Organising Committee for British Aerospace to recommend where the headquarters of the new corporation should be located, having regard to all relevant factors. The claims of the West Midlands will be fully taken into account, along with those of other areas.
