HC Deb 21 March 1923 vol 161 c2559
56. Mr. A. HERBERT

asked the Prime Minister if his attention has been called to the fact that there is a surplus of potatoes in England and Scotland; and if the Government will consider the advisability of using this surplus for relief work in England or, if advisable, to send some of it to Vienna or other starving areas?

The PRIME MINISTER

I am aware of the fact in the first part of my hon. Friend's question, but I do not think that his proposal is practicable.
