HC Deb 03 August 1925 vol 187 cc962-3W
Colonel DAY

asked the Prime Minister whether the Research Committee has been considering the depressed state of the engineering industry; and whether any proposals to assist the engineering industry will be submitted to Parliament this Session?

The PRIME MINISTER

The position of the engineering industry has not been considered by the Committee of Civil Research, except in so far as it is bound up with that of the iron and steel industry. Until the Committee has made its Report to the Cabinet, I am unable to make any statement.
