HC Deb 22 August 1940 vol 364 c1445
28. Mr. Cocks

asked the Home Secretary whether he will consider a regulation to prevent unexamined parcels being taken into public air-raid shelters during an air raid?

Sir J. Anderson

I do not think that such a regulation is necessary.

Mr. Cocks

Does the Minister realise that some parcels may be of an undesirable character?

Sir J. Anderson

I think that is a possibility, but I do not think it is proper to deal with the matter in the way suggested.
