HC Deb 14 December 1943 vol 395 cc1366-7
9. Mr. Isaacs

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he now has any statement to make regarding the issue of supplementary clothing coupons to agricultural and industrial workers for the present rationing period?

Mr. Dalton

Yes, Sir. As I informed the House on 3rd August, the industrial supplements will be continued at the same level in this rationing period as in the last. The 10 supplementary coupons, for which 12,500,000 workers are eligible, will be available from to-morrow at the local offices of the Ministry of Labour, from which full details can be obtained. Other special arrangements, on the lines of those made last year, will also continue in force during this period.
