HC Deb 07 November 1939 vol 353 c34
68. Rear-Admiral Sir Murray Sueter

asked the Secretary for Mines whether clergymen who have work to do at some distance from their vicarages and who have scattered parishes are allowed extra petrol by the petrol control officer to enable them to carry out their clerical duties efficiently?

The Secretary for Mines (Mr. Geoffrey Lloyd)

Yes, Sir. Divisional petroleum officers have already been instructed to grant to ministers of religion the necessary allowances of petrol to enable them to carry out their essential duties.
