HC Deb 04 March 1940 vol 358 cc16-7
38. Mr. T. Williams

asked the Minister of Food the names of the salaried employés of the North Eastern Area Wholesale Meat Supply Association in South Yorkshire, the collecting centre to which they are attached and the salary they receive; and how many other persons are receiving wages or honoraria at each of the South Yorkshire centres?

The Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster (Mr. W. S. Morrison)

The staff of the North Eastern Area Wholesale Meat Supply Association, which acts as the agent of the Ministry of Food, are not employés of the Ministry but of the association, and I regret I am not in possession of detailed information as to the names and salaries of their staff. I am obtaining particulars as to the numbers of staff at the South Yorkshire centres, and I will send this information to the hon. Member as soon as available.
