HC Deb 24 May 1944 vol 400 c742
50. Mr. Hammersley

asked the Minister of Supply under what authority the Rubber Control have issued an instruction that no firm will be supplied with synthetic rubber unless they agree to disclose the details of the whole of their present and future processes to the industry; and whether he is satisfied that any such forced disclosures will adequately safeguard the rights of inventors.

Sir A. Duncan

I am glad to inform my hon. Friend that no such instruction has been issued.
