§ 54. Mr. Doddsasked the Secretary of State for War if the new type of cleaner for green and buff web equipment has yet been brought into general use in place of blanco.
§ The Under-Secretary of State for War (Mr. Fitzroy Maclean)The new type of cleaner will be on sale by the Navy, Army and Air Force Institutes in this country by the end of this month, and overseas, it is hoped, in March or April next year.
§ Mr. DoddsNow that this revolutionary change has taken place, could it not be marked with some sort of ceremonial, in view of its importance?
§ Mr. MacleanThat would be most suitable. Having used the old cleaner and used the new one, I should be the first to welcome it. If the hon. Member has any suggestion perhaps he will let me know of it.
