HC Deb 22 July 1943 vol 391 cc1080-1
65. Mr. Thorne

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he can give any information in connection with the public sale of goods made by Italian prisoners of war in the Chippenham, Wiltshire area; whether he is aware that some of the baskets made by the prisoners are being sold at 12s. 6d.; and what he intends doing about the matter?

Mr. A. Henderson

I am aware of this case. Only one prisoner was concerned and disciplinary action has been taken against him. The guard concerned with the case is appearing before a court-martial.
