HC Deb 04 December 1951 vol 494 c221W
87. Mr. Ross

asked the Minister of Works if he will detail the specific building projects in Ayrshire affected by the Government's postponed start decision.

Mr. Eccles

Ayrshire is an area in which the building industry is overloaded. I cannot say with precision exactly which projects will be affected by the postponement of starting dates, but the whole purpose of the policy is to bring the work into relation with the capacity of the building industry in that area.
