HC Deb 06 June 1944 vol 400 c1216W
Captain Plugge

asked the President of the Board of Trade what percentage of persons do not use their clothing coupons either at all or to no appreciable extent.

Mr. Dalton

No exact information is available, but, according to a representative sample, it appears that 0.4 per cent. spent no coupons at all during the last rationing period, and 1 per cent. spent not more than Io coupons.
