HC Deb 18 February 1946 vol 419 cc780-1
74 Mr. Attewell

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will increase the present quota pairage of footwear to those firms reaching the permitted pairage, but capable of increasing production by the present labour force, and so enable such operatives to work at full output rate.

Sir S. Cripps

I know of no manufacturer who is in a position to produce more footwear than he is permitted to do by the Footwear Control, but if my hon. Friend will give me details of any particular case he has in mind, I will look into it immediately.
