§ Mr. Willeyasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty whether he will make a statement regarding steel supplies to the shipbuilding industry.
§ Mr. T. G. D. GalbraithAs stated in my reply to a Question by the hon. Member on 20th March, it is not possible to forecast what quantities of steel the steel makers may supply to shipyards during this year. Reported deliveries38W during the first three months of the year show, however, an increase in supplies over the corresponding period of the three preceding years.
