Engineering Standards Practice

HC Deb 15 June 1965 vol 714 cc46-7W

33. Mr. Kimball

asked the Minister of Technology whether he will make a statement on the scope of his inquiry, in collaboration with other Government departments, on engineering standards practice.

Mr. Cousins

The inquiry will embrace standards practice in other countries, the effect of legislation on standards practice and the extent to which greater standardisation, particularly in engineering, can assist our export trade.
