HC Deb 14 December 1948 vol 459 c118W
79. Mr. Skeffington-Lodge

asked the President of the Board of Trade how long he intends to continue the rationing of children's clothing and of men's and women's outerwear.

Mr. Bottomley

The rationing of these and of other particular kinds of clothing will end as soon as supplies, present and prospective, of these kinds and of the materials from which they are made are sufficient to meet the rising export programme in full, and to leave a reasonably adequate balance for unrationed home demand.
