asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is satisfied that all available stocks of timber, plywood and furnishing fabrics in this country have been disclosed, and are being used in the present production drive in the furniture industry.

Mr. Belcher

Yes, Sir. If my 'hon. and gallant Friend has any information to the contrary, we shall be glad to consider it. The quantity of timber and plywood available for furniture is that allocated by the Materials Committee after consideration of otheressential needs. The production of utility furnishing fabrics is entirely reserved for utility furniture.
