Proceeding contribution from Lord Beamish (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 21 July 2005. It occurred during Urgent question on Armed Forces (Modernisation).
Armed Forces (Modernisation)
The shipbuilding industry in the UK has been given a tremendous boost over the past few years by record investment, bringing back to parts of the north-east shipbuilding that was taken away by the Conservative Government. May I therefore welcome my hon. Friend’s announcement on the MARS programme? That project will provide a future for the shipbuilding industry in the UK. Will he give me an assurance that urgent talks will take place with shipbuilders throughout the country to ensure that the necessary skills and capacity exist in the industry to meet the requirements of the MARS programme?
