HC Deb 03 March 1942 vol 378 c531W
Mr. W. Joseph Stewart

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether any plans for the organisation of industries now directed to war-production are being prepared in advance by the Government to ensure the immediate switching-over of factories to the production of commodities essential to the every-day life of the people in the post-war period?

Mr. Dalton

Yes, Sir. My Department is studying with the other Departments concerned the best means of facilitating the transfer of industries from war to peace production.
