§ 62. Mr. Liddallasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food why retail meat dealers, who have hitherto been licensed to sell canned meats, are to be prohibited from selling such meats in the future unless they arc already licensed to sell either butter, sugar or bacon?
Major Lloyd GeorgeIt is not proposed to prohibit retail butchers who have hitherto been licensed to sell canned meats from selling such meats in future. Retail butchers are at present the sole distributors of canned corned beef, mutton and pork and it is not proposed to alter this arrangement.
Major Lloyd GeorgeI think my answer covers that point. What they do now they will still continue to do.
