Control of Supplies

The. use of department symbols, period of delivery numbers, and iron and steel control licences is retained. Symbole that cab only be-authorized by a Government Department, and period numbers, with tonnages, must be quoted by all consumers when placing orders with finished steel manufacturers, When there is no direct authorization from a Government Department. a licence (which automatically includes a Board of Trade symbol) is required from the Iron and Steel Control: this must be quoted instead of the Department authorization. The amendments to the scheme are expected to tighten still further the control of supplies.
