HC Deb 15 October 1946 vol 427 c781
43. Mr. Hurd

asked the Secretary of State for War what alteration has been made in the free ration of cigarettes and the supply of duty-free cigarettes from N.A.A.F.I. for B.A.O.R troops; and what is the purpose of the changes.

Mr. Bellenger

There has been no change in the free ration. The supply of cigarettes through N.A.A.F.I. has been increased temporarily because of the favourable stock position.

Mr. Hurd

Are any immediate changes contemplated, because there seem to be many rumours going about?

Mr. Bellenger

No, Sir. The supply of cigarettes has been temporarily increased, as I have said.
