§ Mr. Cassellsasked the Home Secretary which parts of the County of Dumbartonshire have not as yet received Anderson air-raid shelters for erection?
§ Sir J. AndersonThe Government policy has been, as far as possible, to deliver standard steel shelters to areas specified under Part III of the Civil Defence Act. There are four such areas in Dunbartonshire, namely, the burghs of Dumbarton and Clydebank, the district of Old Kilpatrick, and the Vale of Leven and Renton special drainage district. Supply to these areas, in accordance with their requirements, has been virtually completed.
§ Mr. Cassellsasked the Home Secretary whether he is aware that the village of Cardross, Dumbartonshire, has as yet received no Anderson air-raid shelters; and what steps he intends taking to meet the situation?
§ Sir J. AndersonThis village does not lie in an area specified under Part III of the Civil Defence Act, and I am not aware of any special reason for thinking that it should have received, or should receive, supplies of the standard steel shelter.
