HC Deb 28 April 1965 vol 711 c58W
82. Mr. Dodds-Parker

asked the Minister of Aviation what was the number of staff employed at the Royal Aircraft Establishment at Farnborough in 1963–64 and 1964–65; what was the cost; and what are the estimated figures for 1965–66.

Mr. Roy Jenkins

The number of staff employed at the Royal Aircraft Establishment at Farnborough in 1963–64 was 6,148 and the cost £6.3 million. The figures for 1964–65 were 6,068 and £6.9 million and I expect the 1965–66 figures to be about the same.
