§ 67. Mr. R. Robinsonasked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in order to discourage theft, he will now give permission for the crockery used in the catering departments of holiday resorts to be marked with the initials of the owning local authority.
§ Mr. J. EdwardsWe have been in frequent consultation with manufacturers about this and we are satisfied that, while pottery labour remains as short as it is at present, to license special marking for home caterers would be detrimental to production and exports. We are, however, keeping the matter under constant review.
