HC Deb 24 January 1957 vol 563 c67W
63. Mr. Nabarro

asked the President of the Board of Trade the aggregate area of new factory space completed in Great Britain during each calendar year since 1950, expressed correct to the nearest one million square feet.

Sir D. Eccles

The figures for 1951–55 in millions of square feet are 34, 29, 31, 39 and 41 respectively. The figure for 1956 will probably exceed 41 million square feet but is not yet available.
