§ 35. Mr. George Jegerasked the Minister of Food whether surplus eggs may now be sold to the public generally; or whether they are available only to registered customers.
§ Mr. StracheySo far surplus eggs may only be sold to customers registered for shell eggs. If eggs were to become really plentiful in April and May, I should allow them to be sold freely after the allocations have been fully met.
§ Mr. JegerIs my right hon. Friend aware that there is now a surplus of eggs in various country districts and that the shops are prepared to sell them to unregistered customers after they have made allocations to their registered customers?
