§ 5. Mr. Osborneasked the President of the Board of Trade on what grounds he refused permission to Mr. A. H. Smith, of 82, Eastgate, Louth, to send 6 lb. of home-produced honey, which is not rationed, to his daughter in Canada, since his Department's letter dated 12th August, reference ELB 1/42, refers only to the prohibition of rationed goods.
§ Mr. H. WilsonThe letter in question describes the arrangements under which gift parcels containing rationed foodstuffs may be sent abroad. For the purpose of these arrangements honey is a rationed foodstuff, and Mr. Smith may send it, therefore, subject to the conditions set out in the letter.
