HC Deb 24 March 1932 vol 263 c1188
32. Mr. JOEL

asked the President of the Board of Trade if any cases of profiteering have been brought before the Food Council in connection with the operation of any of the duties imposed by His Majesty's Government since it came into office?

The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the BOARD of TRADE (Mr. Hore-Belisha)

Very few such complaints have been received and none has appeared to furnish evidence of profiteering.
