HC Deb 17 February 1960 vol 617 c121W
64. Mr. Willey

asked the Minister of Transport on how many occasions the Shipbuilding Advisory Committee has met during the past twelve months; and what proposals the Committee has made to him during that time.

Mr. Marples

Four times. After the decision to transfer responsibility for the shipbuilding industry to my Department, I met the Committee on 29th October and asked for its views and recommendations on the problems of the industry. These are still under consideration by the Committee.
