HC Deb 11 March 1952 vol 497 c132W
80. Mr. Rankin

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will give details of the means by which he intends to further industrial development in Scotland.

Mr. J. Stuart

This subject is too wide to be dealt with fully in Question and answer. The Government are, however, taking all possible steps to encourage industrial development in Scotland by giving Scottish firms opportunities to tender for contracts and by developing and extending the use of Scottish capacity in connection with the re-armament programme.
