§ 51. Mr. James Callaghanasked the Minister of Food what steps he is taking to increase the allocation of points goods and of soap, custard and blancmange powders to South Wales, in view of the fact that the percentage allocation operated unfairly.
§ 64. Mr. Percy Morrisasked the Minister of Food what steps he is taking to improve the allocation of foodstuffs to South Wales, as requested by the Council of Grocers' Associations.
§ Mr. StracheyI have looked into this very carefully. South Wales as a whole gets its fair share of points foods, soap and unrationed Jlocated foods. But for some unrationed foods distribution according to prewar trade does operate unfairly in certain particular areas of South Wales where unemployment was heavy before the war, and I am having this put right.
