HC Deb 18 May 1949 vol 465 c433
60. Mr. Lipson

asked the Minister of Food if he is now able to announce any relaxation of soap rationing.

Dr. Summerskill

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given by my right hon. Friend to the hon. and gallant Member for Macclesfield (Air-Commodore Harvey) on Monday, 16th May.

Mr. Lipson

Can the right hon. Lady hold out any hope of a relaxation in the near future?

Dr. Summerskill

Not just yet, I am afraid.
