ORGANISATION FOR DEALING WITH WASTE. Report upon the Organisation and Work of the Salvage Department at the Ministry of Supply. 1. The Ministry of Supply in pursuance of its duty in organising and, in some cases, directly providing the raw materials for industry, is the natural home for any Government salvage organisation and its function as Army supplier naturally carries with it the duty of military salvage in particular. A Department to deal with these matters was therefore set up in the Ministry in November, 1939.
