HC Deb 01 October 1942 vol 383 c957W
Major Lyons

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in the national interest and by arrangement with the appropriate trades, he will set up central wireless repair shops in each district to which all sections could have access and where spares, irrespective of make or origin, could be obtainable at reasonable prices or repairs carried out with more expedition than is at present possible?

Captain Waterhouse

My right hon. Friend has no evidence to show that the existing arrangements do not give as good service to the public as the limited resources of labour and of components permit. He is therefore unable to accept my hon. and gallant Friend's suggestion.
