HC Deb 04 May 1916 vol 82 c140W
Commander BELLAIRS

asked the Minister of Munitions how many controlled establishment there are under the Department, and how many are in contemplation?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

The number of controlled establishments at the present time is 3,463. It is not possible to make any estimate of the probable number likely to be controlled in future, but I may say that additions to this number are not now being made rapidly.
