HC Deb 05 July 1949 vol 466 c1968
61. Mr. Swingler

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury if he will circulate to all public libraries a list of the books received from the Service Departments by His Majesty's Stationery Office and remaining in stock and give them the opportunity to purchase direct.

The Financial Secretary to the Treasury (Mr. Glenvil Hall)

Yes, Sir, subject to the number of copies of each title being sufficiently large to justify such a course.
