HC Deb 13 May 1941 vol 371 c1079
53. Mr. Brooke

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will approach the Defence Ministries to ensure that the success of the forthcoming War Weapons Week in London is not jeopardised by the number of military bands, tanks, guns and enemy aircraft allocated for public display during the week proving to be inadequate for the reasonable needs of all the numerous boroughs participating simultaneously in this savings effort?

Sir K. Wood

I understand that the Defence Ministries have promised all the assistance they can give consistently with operational and urgent training requirements.
