Business question from Jim Sheridan (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 15 December 2005. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

My right hon. Friend will be aware of yesterday’s statement by the Secretary of State for Defence about the future of the aircraft carrier orders. I am happy to say that that gives recognition and credit to British shipyard workers, men and women alike. Will my right hon. Friend use his good offices to encourage the successful companies, wherever possible and all things being equal, to sub-contract out work with the interests of British workers at heart by awarding contracts to British companies?
