HC Deb 28 October 1946 vol 428 c259
18. Mr. Palmer

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will approve the granting of a coupon float to Mrs. R. Groombridge, 258, Grand Drive, S.W.20, particulars of whose case have been sent to his Department, a widow with a child to support, in order that she may carry on a drapery business at the above address, for which a building licence has been granted.

Sir S. Cripps

I have reviewed this case and, having regard to the fact that Mrs. Groombridge has been granted a building licence by the local authority, I am now prepared to make an issue of coupons.
