HC Deb 07 February 1968 vol 758 cc183-4W
Mr. Hugh D. Brown

asked the Postmaster-General if he will make a statement on the report and recommendations of the Industrial Reorganisation Corpora- tion consequent upon their investigation of the telecommunications manufacturing industry and its relationships with the Post Office.

Mr. Edward Short:

I would refer my hon. Friend to the Answer given on 18th January by my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Economic Affairs to a Question by the hon. Member for Cirencester and Tewkesbury (Mr. Ridley).

The Report is currently being considered by the Departments concerned, as a result of which it is hoped shortly to begin discussions with the industry.—[Vol. 756, c. 1940.]
