HC Deb 13 April 1938 vol 334 c1158W
Mr. G. Hall

asked the Home Secretary what provision is made by the Air-raid Precautions Department for the storage of gas masks and other equipment in South Wales; and will he give the name of the centre or centres from which supplies can be obtained for this industrial area?

Mr. Lloyd

It is the responsibility of local authorities to provide storage accommodation for gas masks and other equipment required for their respective areas. Supplies of gas masks, etc., for the civil population of South Wales will be provided from Home Office Regional Stores, one of which is now in course of completion at Avonmouth.
