HC Deb 08 July 1948 vol 453 cc47-8W
62. Mr. Amory

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power whether he has authorised the granting of petrol allowances to members of the new hospital committees and boards on a scale sufficient to cover the requirements of this voluntary work without forcing them to draw on their standard ration.

Mr. Robens

Adequate allowances will be made available but, in common with all other supplementary allowances granted by the regional petroleum officers, the amount of the standard ration will be deducted if this has not already been done in respect of some other supplementary allowance issued for the car in question.
