HC Deb 25 November 1946 vol 430 cc1260-1
60. Mr. Gooch

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether, in the allocation of additional sugar beet factories, he will consider the claims of Norfolk, where this season the crop is the heaviest on record and where the campaign is expected to run into February, thus running the risk of a great quantity of beet being made useless through frost.

Mr. T. Williams

I would refer my hon Friend to the first part of my reply to his Question on 4th February last.
