HC Deb 05 May 1943 vol 389 cc163-4
46. Mr. Hannah

asked the Prime Minister whether he will make it clear that in the event of the enemy using gas as an implement of war this country is in a position to retaliate on an even more terrible scale?

Mr. Attlee

It is not thought necessary to add to the carefully weighed statements which have been made upon this point.

Mr. Granville

In view of the fact that we have to depend upon newspaper reports for what has been described as the "forgotten front," can we have an assurance that the supply of tanks and aircraft has not been forgotten or wholly ignored?

Mr. Attlee

Certainly.
