HC Deb 23 February 1943 vol 387 c3
3. Sir Perey Hurd

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether, under the utility furniture scheme, the tenants of the new 3,000 farm cottages will be enabled to buy at controlled prices furniture of good design and local craftsmanship?

Mr. Dalton

Any tenants of these cottages, who qualify for permits, will be able to buy utility furniture, which is of good design and sold at controlled prices. As production of this furniture has been zoned, some is likely to be of local manufacture.
