§ 69. Sir Percy Hurdasked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware of the exceptional difficulty of farm workers in obtaining adequate working clothes on the present issue of 206 coupons; and whether he will arrange for the reconditioned battledress now available to farm workers to be supplied to them without coupons?
§ Mr. DaltonI would refer my hon. Friend to the reply which I gave last Tuesday to my hon. Friend the Member for Tamworth (Sir J. Mellor). I regret that, in view of the shortage of supplies, I cannot adopt my hon. Friend's suggestion.
