§ 40. Major BARNSTONasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food whether the Food Controller can see his way to revise the price of milk for May and Juno from Is. to Is. 2d. per imperial gallon; and whether he is aware that, should the present price be adhered to, a large number of dairies will probably be withdrawn from the market, causing a serious shortage of milk during these months?
§ Mr. CLYNESIt is not proposed to raise the price of milk for May and June unless in any area the cost of production can be shown to justify an increase.
