asked the Secretary for Mines what arrangements have been made for the provision of petrol to members of His Majesty's Forces on short leave from service afloat or overseas who will be granted a three-weeks' licence?

I have been asked to reply. It has been arranged that active service leave petrol allowances will be issued to holders of permits at the same place and time as the permits. The arrangements in regard to the issue of these permits have not yet been finally settled by the Departments concerned.
