HC Deb 05 June 1946 vol 423 c344W
129. Sir W. Wakefield

asked the Minister of Supply if he is aware that the claim by Aerlec (Aluminium), Limited, which he stated in his letter of 12th April would be settled quickly, has not yet been settled; if he will give the reasons for the protracted delay in settlement; and if he will also give an assurance that steps will be taken to see that the settlement of all claims of this nature is speeded up.

Mr. Woodburn

I regret that we have not yet been able to settle the somewhat complex financial issues outstanding with this company, but we are doing our best to do this as quickly as possible.
