HC Deb 26 November 1941 vol 376 c771W
Mr. Lindsay

asked the President of the Board of Education what action he is taking to safeguard the production of school books?

Mr. Ede

My right hon Friend recently inquired into this matter and found that hitherto there has been no appreciable shortage of supply of school books. He recognises, however, the importance of the point to which my hon. Friend draws attention, and he is making further inquiries to determine whether any special steps are required and can be taken to safeguard the position in the future.
