HC Deb 30 July 1919 vol 118 c2127W
Brigadier-General CROFT

asked the Secretary of State for War who were the firms that constructed the early form of gas masks?

Mr. KELLAWAY

I have been asked to answer this question. Several different types of gas masks were manufactured from 1915 onwards, in all cases according to Government designs. The preparation of a complete list of the firms engaged on the manufacture of the various parts of these masks, and on their assembly, would involve considerable labour. If my hon. and gallant Friend will let me know more precisely what information he requires I will endeavour to obtain it for him.
