HC Deb 28 November 1974 vol 882 c258W
Mr. Stainton

asked the Secretary of State for Trade if, in view of the unemployment of some 530 ALTP pilots, he will review the Hamble sponsored training programme.

Mr. Clinton Davis

The training of pilots at the College of Air Training at Hamble is a matter for the governing body of the college to determine in conjunction with British Airways. In reviewing the training programme the college and British Airways will, I am sure, take full account of employment prospects in the industry in the foreseeable future.
