Mr. Woodasked the Lord Privy Seal whether he is aware that unsuitable material for screening purposes is being sold in different parts of the country; and whether he will endeavour to popularise the qualities which such materials should possess to be of real use for the object required?
§ Sir J. AndersonMy attention has not previously been called to the sale of unsuitable materials for screening purposes. The qualities required of such materials are described in general terms in a pamphlet recently issued by my Department on "War-time Lighting Restrictions for Industrial and Commercial Premises." I am sending my hon. Friend a copy. A similar description is also included in a leaflet which is shortly to be distributed to all householders throughout the country.
