HC Deb 08 December 1943 vol 395 cc989-90W
Mr. Graham White

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of War Transport the objects for which the Merchant Navy Supply Association, Limited, was established?

Mr. Noel-Baker

The principal purpose of the Merchant Navy Supply Association is to ensure the supply of the necessary ship's stores to merchant ship's store dealers and to shipowners. The Association endeavours as far as possible to co-ordinate the requirements of the goods. It does not work for profit.
