HC Deb 01 October 1942 vol 383 c949W
Mr. Henderson Stewart

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland when he expects to receive the report of the fire insurance specialists recently appointed to examine the whisky position in Scotland with a view to providing reassurance to the public?

Mr. Johnston

I am informed by the Regional Commissioner that preliminary joint consultations have taken place and that the fire insurance specialists propose to hold their first meeting on Friday, 2nd October. It is not possible at present to indicate how long it will be before they submit their report, but every facility will be afforded them in their inquiries.
