HC Deb 22 November 1938 vol 341 c1542W
Sir J. Nall

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he has considered representations from organisations of traders suggesting the need for the immediate institution of a scheme of insurance against war risk damage to stocks of merchandise and cargoes at sea; and whether, in view of the importance of enabling the movement of essential commodities to be maintained under all possible contingencies, this matter will be considered apart from the general question of damage to fixed property?

Mr. Stanley

Yes, Sir. These questions are under consideration.
