HC Deb 22 August 1940 vol 364 c1483W
Mr. J. Griffiths

asked the Home Secretary whether, in view of the strain imposed on the limited personnel of the air-raid precautions services in non-specified areas, he will review the position, with a view to placing the position in these areas on a comparable basis to the specified areas?

Sir J. Anderson

The Regional Commissioners are discussing with the local authorities concerned the adoption of rota systems in order to avoid undue strain on civil defence volunteers.
