HC Deb 19 December 1935 vol 307 c1935
49. Mr. LEACH

asked the Home Secretary whether he contemplates placing, or has actually placed, orders for gas masks for the civilian population; if so, how many and at what price; whether any scheme for the provision of air-proof containers for infants and air-proof covers for perambulators has been adopted; and will he give particulars?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for the HOME DEPARTMENT (Mr. Geoffrey Lloyd)

I would remind the hon. Member that an undertaking has been given that a full statement on this subject will be made in the near future, and I would ask him to await the statement.
