HC Deb 30 November 1943 vol 395 cc235-6W
Sir Smedley Crooke

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware of the scarcity of saucepans for sale, especially in the city of Birmingham; and will he do whatever is possible to increase the supply of these useful articles?

Mr. Dalton

I am glad to say that the output of saucepans has increased considerably in the past year and is still increasing. This will ease the position in Birmingham as well as in other parts of the country.
