§ Sir B. Neven-Spenceasked the Undersecretary of State for Air what general 400W instructions have been issued by his Department regarding material and stores that may be scrapped or destroyed; and what precautions are taken to see that these instructions are strictly carried out.
§ Mr. StracheyA salvage manual containing general instructions for dealing with Royal Air Force stores and equipment which may be scrapped is issued throughout the Service. We have officers whose duty it is to ensure that the instructions are carried out. Nothing is destroyed if it contains material which has a further use, unless its salvage would be uneconomical.
