HC Deb 16 March 1937 vol 321 c1879W
Lieut.-Commander Fletcher

asked the Minister of Transport whether he is aware that the British Iron and Steel Federation has given notice to the railway companies that the price of steel will be raised after 31st May; and what effect this rise will have upon development programmes already announced by railway companies?

Mr. Hore-Belisha

The railway companies inform me that the matter is now being considered by them.
