HC Deb 18 November 1947 vol 444 c162W
68. Mr. Irving

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware of the large stocks of utility furniture now held by retailers, and if he will take steps to make these available to the public.

Mr. Belcher

I am not aware that stocks of utility furniture in retailers' hands are excessive. I would remind my hon. Friend that large numbers of deferred units were validated on 1st September and 1st October last.
