HC Deb 22 June 1943 vol 390 c1038W
Mr. Graham White

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will consider issuing clothing coupons to all Service men and women coming home on leave who wish to re-equip themselves with civilian clothing to use upon their return to civil life, thereby relieving the strain on the production of clothing when the war is over.

Mr. Dalton

No, Sir. In view of present stringency of supplies, I regret that I cannot give facilities now for the purchase of clothing, which will not be worn until after the war.
