§ 18. Mr. Edgar Granvilleasked the Minister of Aircraft Production if he is satisfied with the provisions that have been made for transport to maintain the supply of essential materials to aircraft factories during the period of heavy road traffic in the near future.
§ The Minister of Aircraft Production (Sir Stafford Cripps)This matter has received the most careful attention from my Department, and arrangements have been made which should reduce to a minimum any interference with the traffics in question.
§ Mr. GranvilleWill the right hon. and learned Gentleman bear in mind that any arrangements to supply by parachute would require the co-operation of the civilian population? Has that point been taken into consideration?
§ Sir S. CrippsI will certainly bear that matter in mind.
