HC Deb 21 August 1940 vol 364 cc1307-8
63. Mr. Jackson

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food whether he will explain the position of consumers who have registered for butter with farmers and who now require margarine, as these people cannot get supplies of margarine on their coupons, as, obviously, farmers do not retail supplies of margarine?

Mr. Boothby

Such consumers should notify the local food office that they desire to re-register with a retailer who sells margarine as well as butter.
