HC Deb 11 March 1943 vol 387 c876W
Mr. Hutchinson

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that members of the Home Guard who are required to provide themselves with shorts, vests and plimsolls when attending courses of instruction in physical training, must surrender civilian clothing coupons in order to obtain these articles; and whether he will arrange for physical training kit to be issued from public sources in these circumstances, or for special clothing coupons to be authorised?

Sir J. Grigg

I am not aware that any such courses have in fact been held but if my hon. and learned Friend will send me particulars of those to which he is referring I will have them looked into.
