HC Deb 16 February 1965 vol 706 cc203-4W
Q9. Mr. Hale

asked the Prime Minister whether he will now announce the proposals of Her Majesty's Government for maintaining full employment in the aircraft industry with provision of work involving comparable skills.

The Prime Minister

An urgent examination is being made of possible methods of providing alternative employment for aircraft workers in the factories where they are now employed. In the meantime my right hon. Friend the Minister of Labour is making special arrangements to assist aircraft workers who become redundant to obtain employment in which they will be able to make the best use of their skills.
