HC Deb 20 April 1944 vol 399 cc343-4
2. Mr. Driberg

asked the Minister of Labour if he will examine, with the Service Departments, the desirability for security reasons of withdrawing labour wasted in the manufacture and public sale of Service caps, metal Service buttons, woven or metal badges, etc.

Mr. Bevin

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply which I gave on 30th March to the hon. Member for Twickenham (Mr. Keeling). After consultation with the Service Departments, I am satisfied that no further action is necessary for security reasons.

Mr. Driberg

May we take it from the right hon. Gentleman's answer that the Service Departments are now also completely satisfied?

Mr. Bevin

Yes, Sir.
