§ Sir R. Gowerasked the Minister of Transport whether his attention has been called to the present prices of spare parts for motor cars; and if he can give any information as to whether a corner exists in these articles?
§ Lieut.-Colonel Moore-BrabazonNo, Sir. I have not had any representations made to me about the prices of motor car spares nor have I any reason for thinking that there is any cornering of supplies. If my hon. Friend has any information on these matters to which he thinks my attention should be drawn I would be glad to consider it, and if I am satisfied that excessive prices are being charged or that cornering exists, I shall not hesitate to use my powers of requisitioning.
