§ Mr. DICKINSONasked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether, in view of the fact that large quantities of clothing and of camp furniture are being required for the troops, and that at this moment there is considerable distress from lack of employment amongst the firms in London engaged in the clothing and furniture trades, he will arrange that the contracts for the supply of these goods shall be allotted in such manner as to enable such firms to obtain a share in the work?
Mr. BAKERI will send to the hon. Member my answer to a similar question put by the hon. Member for Deptford on Monday last.
