§ 84. Mrs. Ganleyasked the Minister of Food what changes will be made with regard to restriction of goods to be sent to Germany now that so many commodities have been taken off points.
§ The Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food (Dr. Edith Summerskill)Although certain foods have been taken off points, it is still necessary, in view of the supply position generally, to maintain the existing restrictions on the types of foodstuffs which may be sent overseas in parcels. However, as there has been no change in the consumer's allowance of points for each ration period, 613 the amount of points food from which people can, if they wish, make up parcels has not been reduced.
