§ 24. Mr. Orr-Ewingasked the Minister of Food why fruit traders in the Weston-super-Mare District of Somerset are only just receiving allocation No. 10 of oranges, whereas other parts of the country have already received allocation No. 12.
§ Mr. StracheyAs the northern and industrial areas of the country do not get their full share of home-grown fruit, I am continuing the policy of giving them an occasional extra allocation of oranges to make up. The Weston-super-Mare district is receiving allocations on a par with all other areas in the south.
§ Mr. Orr-EwingCan we have the information, if I put a Question down, concerning the areas which are ahead of others, because it does not seem to me that those areas behind in the allocation are always those which have the advantage of distribution?
§ Mr. StracheyCertainly, but the information has already been given and is available in HANSARD.
