HC Deb 21 January 1943 vol 386 c295
51. Mr. Graham White

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether, in view of the increasing and inconvenient accumulations of bran at certain centres and the desirability of increasing the bran ration to dairy farmers at this important period of lactation, he proposes to increase the coupon value?

Mr. Hudson

No, Sir. Existing coupon issues will fully asborb the whole of the cereal feeding-stuffs, including bran, likely to be available in the current rationing period, and an increase in the coupon value is impracticable. Other measures are being adopted to accelerate the reduction of temporary local accumulations of bran.

Mr. White

Does that mean that free distribution will be made in certain areas?
