HC Deb 03 November 1938 vol 340 c391W
Lieut.-Colonel Moore-Brabazon

asked the Home Secretary whether the acute shortage of suction hoses for fire-engine pumps revealed during the recent crisis has been put right?

Mr. Lloyd

Production of suction hose is rapidly overtaking issue of pumps, and I have no reason to doubt that any deficiencies which may still exist will have been made good at an early date.
