HC Deb 01 November 1965 vol 718 c134W
Mr. Beaney

asked the President of the Board of Trade, what steps he is taking to speed up publication of the results of the 1963 Census of Production.

Mr. Darling

Full Censuses of Production are large scale inquiries and inevitably their results take an appreciable time to process and publish. A new electronic computer is being used for the Census for 1963, and it is expected that this will enable the Census reports to be produced more speedily than for full censuses for earlier years.
