HC Deb 03 May 1948 vol 450 c108W
Sir E. Graham-Little

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that in the case of firms, however large, in which only one individual signs cheques, the banks are forbidden to supply more than 25 cheques in a pocket cheque book, instead of larger cheque books of 250 or more cheques in paste board covers; that this leads to waste of time and loss of business efficiency; and whether, since the small saving of paper on each cheque is not counterbalanced by the waste of special covers for every 25 cheques, he will rectify this position.

Mr. H. Wilson

I am not aware of the existence of any restriction of the kind referred to by the hon. Member.
