HC Deb 06 March 1945 vol 408 c1822
58. Mr. Driberg

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he can make any statement on current imports of children's Wellington boots from Canada; anl if there is to be a distribution of these in addition to the distribution of such boots announced by him recently.

Mr. Dalton

The first consignments of children's Wellingtons from Canada, to which I referred in reply to Questions on 6th February, are expected to arrive in a few weeks' time. These supplies will be small in relation to the total demand and special arrangements have been made to ensure that they are distributed to children in rural areas.

Mr. Driberg

Thank you.
