HC Deb 31 July 1957 vol 574 c210W
121. Mr. Hunter

asked the Secretary of State for War in view of the coming reductions in the British Army, what is his policy in regard to a reduction in the number of established industrial employees in Army workshops, and what scheme for compensation will be announced for them.

Mr. John Hare

Although some unestablished staff may have to be discharged, no reduction is contemplated in our total complement of established industrial employees. The second part of the Question does not therefore arise.
