Danish Butter (Hansard, 28 March 1955)

HC Deb 28 March 1955 vol 539 c24 24

§ 42. Mr. K. Thompson
asked the Minister of Food when he expects to obtain more plentiful supplies of Danish butter.

Dr. Hill
No great improvement can be expected before the middle of April.

§ Mr. Thompson
Will my hon. Friend take into account the fact that Danish butter is extremely popular in the north of England and that we look forward to larger supplies at an early date?

Dr. Hill
I do know that Danish butter is very popular in the north of England and some parts of the Midlands. The Danes have been finding profitable markets elsewhere, but we have reason to expect that the position will soon improve.
