HC Deb 06 June 1945 vol 411 cc881-2
53. Sir William Wayland

asked the Minister of Food what quantity of food raised in this country a Belgian or a Frenchman coming to this country on business can take back as part of his luggage.

Colonel Llewellin

After a mere visit here, none, Sir.

Sir W. Wayland

Does that mean that a farmer cannot give to a Belgian friend, who is starving, a bit of ham or bacon?

Hon. Members

Ham?

Colonel Llewellin

Yes, Sir, it certainly does.
