§ 32. Mr. Percy Wellsasked the President of the Board of Trade if he will make an allocation of children's summer underwear available in the Faversham Division of Kent.
§ Sir S. CrippsUnderwear is distributed through the normal trade channels and is not controlled by Board of Trade allocations. I have no reason to suppose that the Faversham Division of Kent is not receiving its proper share of children's summer underwear in relation to available supplies, but if my hon. Friend has evidence to the contrary, I will gladly examine it.
§ Mr. WellsIs the right hon. and learned Gentleman aware that these garments were absolutely unobtainable at the date when this Question was put down?
§ Sir S. CrippsI hope they are now obtainable.
