HC Deb 18 November 1946 vol 430 c40W
123. Mr. Renton

asked the Minister of Supply whether he is aware that there is a shortage of electric batteries for bicycle lamps; and what steps he is taking to overcome this shortage.

Mr. Wilmot

My information is that the present production of these batteries is sufficient to satisfy the demand. There may, however, be local shortages, due to distribution or transport difficulties, and if the hon. Member will let me have particulars I will do what I can to help.
