43. Mr. J. H. Osborn

asked the Minister of Transport what general direction she has given to British Railways workshops regarding the manufacture and assembly of accessories and components which hitherto have been purchased from the private sector of industry.

None. In accordance with the proposals submitted under section 13 of the Transport Act, 1962 and approved by my right hon. Friend's predecessors as Minister of Transport, the Board's primary policy is to place available manufacturing work with the most economical source.—[Vol. 690, c. 90Vol. 704, c.82.]
