HC Deb 22 July 1954 vol 530 c1555
39. Sir R. Acland

asked the Minister of Education whether she will give an assurance that in all cases where the allowance of 11 oz. per week for school meals when reasonably purchased exceeds the former cash allowance, the excess will be recognised by her for unit cost purposes.

Mr. Pickthorn

Yes, Sir, so long as the cost is reasonable.
