HC Deb 21 April 1975 vol 890 c200W
25. Mr. Ridley

asked the Secretary of State for Industry on what evidence he based his estimate that £6,000 million is needed to be invested in British industry.

Mr. Benn

This estimate was based on tie assumption that we would need to double the amount of capital investment per worker employed in manufacturing industry in order to match the performance of our competitors.
