HC Deb 27 June 1949 vol 466 c731
21. Sir Ian Fraser

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power whether he is now able to announce any further relaxation of the petrol rationing system.

Mr. Robens

No, Sir.

Sir I. Fraser

Is the hon. Gentleman not aware of the extreme importance to holiday makers and the holiday industry of having a little bit of extra standard petrol, at least till the end of the summer?

Mr. Robens

We understand the problems arising from petrol shortages. At the same time, we have an even greater problem in relation to the dollar situation.
