HC Deb 17 June 1947 vol 438 c199W
64. Mr. Osborne

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will make a statement about his discussions with the National Hosiery Manufacturers Federation for an increase in non-utility goods and for the import of stockings and knitwear from Europe.

Mr. Belcher

No. Discussions with the National Hosiery Manufacturers' Federation are proceeding on both these points, and I am not yet in a position to make a statement.
