HC Deb 25 May 2000 vol 350 c610W
Mr. Davidson

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what actions he has recently taken to help retain shipbuilding on the Clyde. [121807]

Dr. Reid

This Government are firmly committed to improving the competitive position of the shipbuilding industry not just on the Clyde but across the whole of the UK. I have had recent meetings with ministerial colleagues, trade unions and management of the Govan shipyard and continue to promote the strengths in shipbuilding that exist on the Clyde.
