HC Deb 17 June 1980 vol 986 c473W
Mr. Michael McNair-Wilson

asked the Secretary of State for Defence on what criteria suppliers of uniform and footwear for the Armed Services are chosen.

Mr. Hayhoe

Any firm wishing to tender for supplies to the Ministry of Defence may apply for registration on the defence contractors list. Before registration, firms have to satisfy the Ministry that their financial and technical resources are adequate.
