§ Captain Stricklandasked the President of the Board of Trade what proportion of home manufactured or imported valves suited for use in domestic radio sets are now being released for sale; and whether, in view of the grave shortage in the stocks available for sale for domestic use, it is now possible to meet the demand for this essential service more adequately?
§ Captain WaterhouseI would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the answer given him by my right hon. Friend on 3rd April, in which he stated that steps have been taken to secure as far as possible the supply of valves for domestic wireless reception. If my hon. and gallant Friend will furnish me with full details of shortages in any particular district, I shall be glad to have them fully investigated.
