HC Deb 06 July 1926 vol 197 c1906W
Major HILLS

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether he is aware that there is great delay in obtaining from the Stationery Office Custom Form 126, and that, as long ago as 27th May, Goldsborough Toffees, Limited, Knaresborough, ordered two dozen, but could not obtain any until 19th June, when three forms were received; and, seeing that so small a delivery is of little use to a business house, and that great inconvenience, expense, and loss of business is occasioned through non-receipt of forms in proper quantities, he will at once take the necessary steps to have the matter put right?

Mr. McNEILL

I much regret the inconvenience to which my hon. Friend refers. There was some delay in printing a fresh supply of the form owing to consideration of points of detail in which it required revision, and the delay was greatly increased by the recent emergency. Adequate supplies are now available and all orders have been cleared.
