asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Supply whether, in view of the fact that sufficient waste could be collected to operate paper-mills at an appreciably higher percentage, steps will be taken to put more drive into the collection of waste paper?

During the past few months additional steps have been taken to stimulate the collection of waste paper by the organisation of county salvage drives and by the increased enlistment of the help of voluntary organisations. In addition, widespread support is being given to the salvage campaign by the Press throughout the country.

What has been the result?

Very satisfactory, but we still want additional effort.

Will my hon. Friend try to stop the sending of circulars to Members of Parliament and save a little money that way?
