HC Deb 28 January 1942 vol 377 c722
70. Mr. Parker

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Supply why it has been arranged to have rubber growers, brokers and dealers on the Rubber Control Board when places are not found for independent tyre retreaders or rubber reclaimers?

Mr. Harold Macmillan

The Rubber Control Board already includes a re-claimer, and it would be undesirable to increase its size. The Tyre Retreaders Conference has, however, been invited to nominate members to the Tyre Control Committee, which reports to the Board.
