HC Deb 14 July 1947 vol 440 c6W
75. Mr. Parker

asked the Minister of Supply what measures he proposes to take to encourage the collection of scrap iron, including obsolete tanks and guns and discarded vehicles at present disfiguring town and countryside, as a means of meeting the present scrap shortage and of economising in coal consumption.

Mr. Wilmot

All dumps under my Department's control are being cleared as quickly as we can get labour and transport to do the work.
