HC Deb 15 November 1949 vol 469 cc191-2W
77. Mr. Platts-Mills

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware of the many complaints that boys' utility stockings are badly fitting and have no give on the ankle; and if he will require manufacturers to produce utility stockings of an improved quality.

Mr. J. Edwards

Boys' utility stockings are made to specifications which have been designed to ensure the production of satisfactory stockings and the arrangements have worked well in practice. We have received no complaints, but if the hon. Member will let me have details of any cases which have come to his notice I will have them investigated.
