HC Deb 07 April 1938 vol 334 c539W
Mr. T. Williams

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he can state the output of cement for the year 1913 or 1914 and the output for 1937?

Captain Wallace

I regret that official figures in respect of the years 1913, 1914 and 1937 are not available but according to information furnished in connection with the Census of Production, the output of cement in the United Kingdom in 1912 was about 2,800,000 tons and in 1935 about 6,200,000 tons.
