HC Deb 03 April 1946 vol 421 c1249
56. Mr. Turton

asked the Minister, of Food what quantity of eggs and butter is to be imported during the next six months from Denmark.

Sir B. Smith

I have arranged to import the largest possible quantities of butter and eggs from Denmark, but the amount arriving during the next six months will depend on the weather and other conditions affecting production

Mr. Keeling

Could we get more if we could send them coal?

Hon. Members: Answer.

Sir B. Smith

I have no answer. Quite frankly, I cannot answer a question of that kind.
