§ 23. Mr. Pethick-Lawrenceasked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will give an assurance that in placing restrictions on normal production he will give sympathetic consideration to all forms of medical supplies and of supplies intended to relieve physical defects, including, in particular, high-tension batteries used in the latest implements for the deaf?
§ Mr. StanleyThe right hon. Member will appreciate that it is not possible to give any guarantee as to the treatment of any particular class of goods, but I 632 can assure him that every endeavour will be made to give due weight to every reasonable claim.
§ Mr. Pethick-LawrenceMay 1 take it that sympathetic consideration will also be given to other parts, such as cords, condensers, and other things required for the implements?
