Major Markham
asked the Minister of Supply what orders have already been placed by him with the British Railways carriage or locomotive works; and what steps are being taken to ensure the fullest co-operation in this field.
Mr. Low
I would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the reply given last Monday to the hon. Members for Acton (Mr. Sparks) and Winchester (Mr. Smithers). Re-armament work has already been placed by the Ministry of Supply with the locomotive shops at Horwich, and some coaching stock is being sent for overhaul to the workshops at Wolverton.
