HC Deb 26 March 1958 vol 585 c42W
Sir J. Henderson-Stewart

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty if he has anything further to say on the steps being taken to find another use for Donibristle Royal Naval Aircraft Repair Yard which will provide alternative employment for the hired men there.

Mr. T. G. D. Galbraith

We are doing all we can to interest commercial firms in the Aircraft Repair Yard at Donibristle, by means of advertisement in the national and provincial Press, and we have the assistance of my right hon. Friend the President of the Board of Trade. We would be prepared to lease or to sell the establishment and would be very interested in offers from enquirers likely to maintain the level of employment in the Yard. If the hon. Member has had any inquiries about the Yard, I would be very grateful if he would pass them on to me.
