HC Deb 17 May 1944 vol 400 cc193-4W
Mr. Neil Maclean

asked the Minister of Supply whether he is aware that several newsagents in Glasgow who closed their shops on Monday, 10th April, being the statutory Glasgow Easter holiday, are now being refused their supply of Scottish daily and evening newspapers by a body called the Scottish District Newspaper Society, which is composed of the circulation managers of the Scottish daily press; and, as this action is a case of restriction of trade by that body, what action is he prepared to take to stop it.

Sir A. Duncan

I understand that this dispute has now been settled between the parties.
