HC Deb 02 May 1969 vol 782 c309W
Mr. Eadie

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will make a statement on the report of the Edwards Committee on Civil Aviation.

Mr. Crosland

The Report was published this morning, although I regret that because of an industrial dispute in the Stationery Office, copies will not be on general sale to the public today. I hope during the summer to set out the Government's conclusions in a White Paper. Meanwhile I shall welcome the comments of interested parties in all sections of the industry. I am very grateful to Sir Ronald Edwards and his colleagues for the thorough and speedy way they have gone about their task. Their Report will be most valuable.
