HC Deb 28 September 1944 vol 403 c441W
Mr. Thorne

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what power torch the people are allowed to use during the black-out when walking about the roads; and what power torch is allowed when the siren has been sounded.

Mr. H. Morrison

There is now no restriction on the power of torches either before or after the siren has been sounded. save that the light must be emitted through a single aperture the area of which does not exceed that of a circle one inch in diameter.
