HC Deb 12 August 1947 vol 441 cc2252-3
26. Mr. Osborne

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware of the shortage of gabardine raincoats for schoolchildren; and if he will arrange for greater supplies in the immediate future in answer to the representations made by the Lindsey Education Committee.

Mr. Belcher

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given to the hon. and gallant Member for Chelsea (Commander Noble) on Thursday last.

Mr. Osborne

As I was not present at the time that answer was given, and as I have seen a copy of a letter sent from the education committee, may I know if anything has been done?

Mr. Belcher

The hon. Member can read in HANSARD the reply given last Thursday. A reply has been sent direct to the Lindsey Education Committee.
