§ 52. Sir Adrian Baillieasked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster whether it is proposed to control or ration poultry of any kind?
§ Mr. W. S. MorrisonThe desirability of controlling the price of poultry is being kept under constant review. It is not proposed to include poultry in the rationing scheme.
§ Mr. R. GibsonCan the Minister say on what principle a particular item is chosen to be controlled?
§ Mr. MorrisonThat is another and a much wider question.
§ Mr. ThorneIs the Ministry aware that unless poultry is controlled those who have plenty of money will have plenty to eat?
§ Mr. MorrisonWe are watching the price movements of poultry very closely, and if it is necessary to control poultry that will be done.
