asked the Prime Minister whether he will give instructions to the Air Board and the Treasury and other Government Departments to give all possible facilities to the concerns at present engaged in the manufacture of aircraft, with a view to increasing the output, and not to persist in putting impediments in the way, such as refusal of permission to increase their capital with the object of increasing output and efficiency?
