§ 62. Mr. Spenceasked the Minister of Food whether, in view of the favourable position of sugar stocks, he will consider making a special allocation this summer for the bottling of fruit.
§ Dr. SummerskillI would refer the hon. Member to the reply given by my right hon. Friend on 31st March to the hon. Member for Dumfries (Mr. N. Macpherson).
§ Captain CrowderIf we cannot have any more sugar for fruit bottling or sweets, can we have any more for jam?
§ Dr. SummerskillThe hon. and gallant Member should be aware that the first extra allocation is to be made very soon, and that last year there were five allocations for that purpose.
