HC Deb 02 August 1946 vol 426 c302W
Mr. Janner

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will allow 10 supplementary clothing coupons to workers in the clothing industry who use treadle machines, in the same manner as they are allowed to workers using mechanical-power machines.

Sir S. Cripps

Yes, Sir. In the 1946–47 ration period, workers in the clothing industry who are employed in factories for more than 22 hours a week will be eligible for the industrial ten supplement, whether or not they use mechanical power machines.
