HC Deb 14 June 1950 vol 476 c217
48. Mr. Boyd-Carpenter

asked the Minister of Food what reductions he has made in the staff of his Department as the result of the abolition of points rationing.

Mr. Webb

As I have already said, we shall save just over 1,000 staff. They will go when they have worked out their notices, which will not be for some weeks.
