§ 58. Mr. GILBERTasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food whether his attention has been called to the shortage in the supply of cheese in certain districts of London; and if it is possible for his Department to release more stock from storage in order to relieve this scarcity?
§ Mr. CLYNESI am aware of the present scarcity of cheese, and am taking all possible steps to provide increased supplies. Arrangements have been made to provide considerable quantities of imported cheese, and it is hoped that these will soon be available for distribution to the civilian population, after Army requirements have been satisfied.
