§ 91. Major John Morrisonasked the President of the Board of Trade, what percentage of sports goods is reserved for the use of N.A.A.F.I.; and what percentage is available for sale to the public through the retail shops of the country.
§ Sir S. CrippsAbout 55 per cent. in quantity of priority sports goods, i.e. equipment for team games, is at present allocated to the Services and bought, in the main, through N. A.A.F.I. Most of the remainder is allocated to civilian priority users at home and bought in the retail shops. No other types of sports goods are reserved for N.A.A.F.I. except to a very limited extent in one or two special cases.
§ Major MorrisonWill the right hon. and learned Gentleman bear in mind that there is a considerable shortage among the younger members of the community, and will he do all he can to encourage production?
§ Sir S. CrippsWe are doing all we can to increase the supplies.
