§ Mrs. Willsasked the Minister of Health whether he will arrange with the President of the Board of Trade to issue permits for sheets and blankets to those citizens who open their homes to take in the homeless in answer to his appeal.
§ Mr. BevanPeople who are invited to use spare rooms in an occupied house will ordinarily provide their own sheets and blankets unless the householder prefers to do so. The incoming lodgers will be in the same position for getting sheets and blankets as other members of the community similarly situated, and I do not think there is any need to ask for additions to the existing permit system on their behalf.
