HC Deb 28 February 1949 vol 462 c20
40. Brigadier Rayner

asked the Minister of Food if he will now indicate when the new prices for animal feeding-stuffs will come into effect.

The Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food (Dr. Edith Summer-skill)

I am not yet able to say.

Mr. Baldwin

Will the right hon. Lady say whether her Department have advised the Ministry of Agriculture about these new prices? Otherwise, how can the Minister of Agriculture discuss a price review with the farmers of this country?

Dr. Summerskill

Certainly, Sir. There is full co-operation between my Department and that of my right hon. Friend.
