Bacon Rationing Order (Hansard, 19 June 1950)

HC Deb 19 June 1950 vol 476 c849 849

§ 40. Mr. C. S. Taylor
asked the Minister of Food, in view of the recent increase in the bacon ration, why he has not withdrawn S.I. No. 784 of 1950 entitled "The Bacon (Rationing) Order"; and why a new Order has not been made.

§ Mr. Webb
The necessary amending Order has, in fact, been made.

§ Mr. Taylor
Does not the Minister think it funny that the bacon ration was restored to five ounces directly a Prayer was put on the Order Paper?
