§ 52. Mrs. Castleasked the Minister of Food whether, in view of the shortage of vegetables, he will remove the limitation on the quantity of cauliflowers which may at present be imported.
§ Mr. F. WilleyIt is unlikely that the import quota will be fully used. Supplies received so far are well below it, but if it threatens to become restrictive we shall certainly review it.
§ Mrs. CastleWill my hon. Friend undertake to watch the position to see that import restrictions do not prevent British housewives from getting much needed vegetables at a time when home producers cannot meet the supply?
§ Mr. WilleyI have already indicated that if this threatens to be restrictive we shall review it.
