HC Deb 31 October 1939 vol 352 c1758W
Sir R. Glyn

asked the Home Secretary whether, in view of the very large sum at present being paid by local authorities for the hire of motor vehicles for air-raid precautions work, he will advise those responsible purchasing an appropriate number of second-hand motor-cars which are now being offered at very low prices, and allocating these for the use of air-raid precautions workers in place of the hired motor-cars?

Sir J. Anderson

Recommendations in the sense suggested have been issued to local authorities.
