§ 53. Mr. Ness Edwardsasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food whether he is aware that National Vegetable Marketing, Limited, invited the Midland wholesale fruit trade to nominate a person for the position of area controller, and that, after doing so, their nomination was rejected in favour of a personal friend of Mr. George Munro, a director of the board; and whether, as this action has given rise to great dissatisfaction, he has any statement to make thereon?
Major Lloyd GeorgeI have nothing to add to the reply I gave to the similar Question by my hon. Friend on 9th July.
