HC Deb 14 July 1947 vol 440 c14W
Mr. Chetwynd

asked the President of the Board of Trade what arrangements have been made to continue employment at No. 2 M.R.D., Eaglescliffe, Stockton-on-Tees when the present recovery of aluminium from crashed aircraft comes to an end; and when it is anticipated that this will take place.

Mr. Belcher

Agreement in principle was reached last September for Morris Motors, Limited, to take over this factory as the work for the Ministry of Supply comes to an end, thus providing continuity of employment. It is not expected that the Ministry of Supply work and labour employment at the factory will decline before the early part of 1948.
