§ Mr. Perkinsasked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will consider increasing the number of clothing coupons available for children under 12 months?
§ Mr. DaltonNo, Sir. Expectant mothers receive a supplement of 60 coupons which is intended to provide for the infant s layette; and the infant is entitled at birth to a ration at the ordinary basic rate, which is, owing to the low pointing of infants' clothes, equivalent to more than 100 coupons a year.
