HC Deb 24 October 1945 vol 414 cc2133-4W
Major Lloyd

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in view of the likely continued shortage of goods, he is satisfied that no injustice will be done by basing compensation for the loss of chattels under the War Damage Act on values at the time of the loss and not on values at the time when it will be possible to replace articles.

Mr. Marquand

I would refer the hon. and gallant Member to the reply given on 23rd August to the hon. Member for Orpington (Sir W. Smithers).
