§ 88. Sir C. Edwardsasked he President of the Board of Trade what orders for materials or stores have been given by the nationalised industries in Wales and Monmouthshire to any works or factories operating in that part of the country; and where and to whom.
§ Mr. BottomleyThe nationalised industries have been asked in the national interest to place orders in the Development Areas wherever possible and I am sure they will co-operate. But the House will appreciate that the information requested by my hon. Friend, which concerns the day-to-day activities of these industries, is not available to us.
