HC Deb 16 October 1941 vol 374 cc1517-8W
Mr. R. Morgan

asked the Secretary of State for Air whether the policy adopted by his Department of urging civilian instructors to agree to wear uniform will be extended to all civilian personnel at the Royal Air Force stations, and later to the headquarters of the Ministry itself; and, if not, why this particular class of civilian has been singled out for pressure?
