HC Deb 18 October 1939 vol 352 c897W
Mr. David Adams

asked the Minister of Supply whether surveys of all factory accommodation in the country are in progress; when it is expected that this will be completed; and how new productive capacity is to be employed?

Mr. Burgin

Detailed surveys of capacity have been in hand for some years. The results of these surveys are now being utilised and further surveys are being carried out. It cannot yet be stated in detail how the new capacity located is to be employed, but it will be in connection with the armament programme as need arises.
