HC Deb 11 June 1941 vol 372 c205W
Mr. Hammersley

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will consider the prohibition of the printing of all special cheques, and cheques which require elaborate processes of printing, with a view to the elimination of unnecessary processes?

Captain Waterhouse:

This matter is receiving consideration, and I will let my hon. Friend know the result in due course.

Mr. Parker

asked the Minister of Supply whether, in view of the fact that he intends taking steps to economise in paper by securing the issue of smaller cheques of uniform size, he will also issue an order reducing the size of dividend counterfoils?

Sir A. Duncan

I am having the hon. Member's suggestion further investigated.
