Mr. Forth : There are two members of my Department on the committee for innovation and technology transfer out of a total membership of twenty four. They are Mr. J. Niblett and Mr. M. Porter.
Manufacturing Industry
Mr. Austin Mitchell : To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, further to his reply of 27 April, Official Report, columns 614- 5, concerning gross output of finished manufactures and imports of semi- manufactures, intermediate products and basic materials, whether he will provide comparable figures for clothing ; and if he will add figures for 1973 and for exports.
Mr. Alan Clark : The available figures for gross output of finished manufactures for clothing follow. A split of trade into semi-manufactures, intermediate finished manufactures and basic materials is not appropriate as clothing is a finished manufacture for consumer use.
