HC Deb 09 November 1939 vol 353 c412
51. Mr. de Rothschild

asked the Minister of Agriculture why the figures fixed by the Milk Marketing Board for milk going into manufacture have been subjected to censorship and withheld from the public?

Sir R. Dorman-Smith

No censorship of any kind has been imposed on the publication of prices prescribed by the Milk Marketing Board.

Mr. de Rothschild

Is the right hon. and gallant Gentleman aware that during the last fortnight agricultural publications have stated that owing to the censorship, they were prevented from publishing these figures, and will he see that this is rectified?

Sir R. Dorman-Smith

I hope this question and the answer will correct that impression.

Forward to
