HC Deb 27 October 1952 vol 505 cc1575-6
48. Sir W. Smithers

asked the hon. Member for Woolwich, West, as Chairman of the Kitchen Committee, to what extent the consumption of fish has increased in the House of Commons since October, 1951.

Mr. Steward

Since the House resumed the beginning of November, 1951, the consumption of fish in the Refreshment Department has been approximately the same each month.

Sir W. Smithers

In view of the fact that the sea at Morecambe was probably polluted recently, will my hon. Friend ensure that no more Morecambe shrimps are supplied but that a good supply of Scarborough lobsters is supplied instead?
