HC Deb 27 June 1966 vol 730 c193W
Mr. Powell

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what Royal Air Force transport aircraft he proposes to make available for delivering consignments of exports, if necessary; and on what duties these aircraft are at present employed.

Mr. Healey

Suitable aircraft will be made available according to the requirement. All R.A.F. Transport Command aircraft are fully tasked on routine freighting and exercise duties and the airlift to Zambia, but export requirements which have a sufficiently high priority will be met at the expense of other commitments.
