§ Mr. Mitchisonasked the President of the Board of Trade whether he proposes to enlarge the scope of the issue of permits and dockets for utility furniture; and, in particular, whether he is prepared to give sympathetic consideration to cases where families need additional furniture because of moves consequent on a return to the neighbourhood of London of their office or other centre of employment.
§ Sir S. CrippsI regret that supplies of utility furniture are not sufficient to justify an extension of the priority scheme in the manner suggested.
