HC Deb 03 May 1934 vol 289 c482
62. Mr. WHITE

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware that the inadequate supply of hams for processing in the Liverpool area under the present quota system has led to higher prices, loss of export trade, and loss of employment; and what steps he proposes to take to remedy this situation?

Dr. BURGIN

Representations received from the Liverpool Provision Trade Association in regard to supplies of hams have been referred to the Market Supply Committee, who now have this question under consideration.
