§ Mr. Parkerasked the Secretary of State for War from how many designs the present design for the Auxiliary Territorial Service uniform was originally chosen; whether the advice of recognised dress or uniform designers was sought on the matter; and will he consider whether a more suitable and becoming uniform can be designed for future use and for replacement purposes when existing stocks have been exhausted?
§ Sir J. GriggThe present uniform of the Auxiliary Territorial Service has been arrived at by successive modifications made in the light of experience and expert advice. The latest of these modifications were embodied for the Department in a sample design by a tailor of Savile Row. I am not at present contemplating any further alteration.
