HC Deb 01 June 1949 vol 465 c153W
22. Mr. Vane

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs on what basis building material under our control is supplied or released to the German authorities in the Western Zone.

Mr. Mayhew

Structural steel is the only building material under Allied control, and allocations are made by the German authorities. Provided no Military Government policy is contravened these allocations are normally approved.
