HC Deb 28 February 1955 vol 537 c209W
9. Mr. Albu

asked the Minister of Supply how far the Iron and Steel Board, in its Report to him on the development of the iron and steel industry, has taken account of the recently announced plans for railway modernisation, for the construction of nuclear power stations, and for road construction.

Mr. Selwyn Lloyd

If the hon. Member will refer to Chapter 2 of the Report, he will see that in its estimation of the demand for iron and steel products the Iron and Steel Board has taken many factors into account. With regard to the specific points raised by the hon. Member, I would refer him in particular to paragraph 20.
