HC Deb 22 January 1948 vol 446 c55W
79. Mr. Roland Robinson

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power with which football pool companies he has made arrangements for the distribution of a Ministry of Fuel circular entitled "Put it Out," and containing a New Year resolution to save fuel and a calendar for 1948; how many copies have been distributed; what is the amount of paper involved; and whether in view of the shortage of paper he will discontinue this circular.

Mr. Gaitskell

This is one of a number of leaflets being distributed by Gas and Electricity Undertakings, the 594 local committees and other voluntary and public bodies supporting the National Fuel Saving appeal. Four million copies were distributed by Littlewoods and Bonds Pools involving four-and-a-half tons of paper. It is not proposed to reprint the leaflets.
