HC Deb 26 July 1938 vol 338 c2910
78. Mr. Duncan

asked the Home Secretary when the survey now being undertaken by the local authorities in London of basements in connection with air-raid precautions will be completed; and whether he will publish the results of this survey?

Earl Winterton

Substantial progress has been made in London with the survey for public shelters. My right hon. Friend is not in a position to say when the work, which presents many novel problems, will be completed; but he will certainly take an opportunity of making a statement upon the results in so far as they may lend themselves to any general statement.
