HC Deb 01 August 1951 vol 491 cc203-4W
72. Air Commodore Harvey

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Civil Aviation if he will now set up a commission to inquire into, and make recommendations on, the future of the Brabazon type of aircraft, taking into account the makers' performance figures and the policy of British Overseas Airways Corporation.

Mr. Beswick

No. There already exists a Standing Inter-Departmental Civil Aircraft Requirements Committee, on which the Ministry of Supply, the Ministry of Civil Aviation and the Air Corporations are represented, to consider civil aircraft requirements and the future use of types under development.
