HC Deb 05 April 1967 vol 744 c50W
Mr. Judd

asked the Secretary of State for Defence in view of the surplus productive capacity represented by manhours spent on waiting time in the Royal Naval Dockyards, what action he will take to ensure constantly fuller use of these resources.

Mr. Foley

Every endeavour is made to use the productive capacity of H.M. Dockyards to the full and measures are being taken to increase efficiency, including the reorganisation of management and the improvement of planning techniques. But the task of the Dockyards is such that some waiting time is inevitable.
