HC Deb 22 October 1940 vol 365 c941W
Mr. G. Strauss

asked the Home Secretary whether he will authorise local authorities to provide lighting in communal domestic shelters; and whether he intends to provide bunks for these shelters?

Miss Wilkinson

In London and other areas where similar conditions obtain that is, where the shelters are likely to be in use all night, the lighting of these shelters has been authorised; and over the same range it is intended to instal bunks as supplies become available.
