§ Mr. Bartlettasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of War Transport what steps he is taking to encourage the railway companies to remove unnecessary black-out paint from carriage windows.
§ Mr. Noel-BakerI regret that it is not practicable with the present shortage of labour to remove a part only of the existing black-out paint on railway carriage windows, and that for security reasons the railways cannot yet be permitted to remove it all.
