§ Wing-Commander Jamesasked the President of the Board of Trade, whether, in the arrangements being made under the Concentration of Industry Scheme, preferences shall be assured in respect of family businesses in cases where sons, or other members of the family, have joined the forces in the hope and expectation of returning to re-occupy their positions upon demobilisation?
§ Captain WaterhouseThe scheme for the Concentration of Industry is designed to safeguard the interests of both closed and nucleus firms. I am afraid that it would be impracticable to discriminate between businesses affected by the concentration of production on the basis of the family circumstances of the proprietors.
