HC Deb 20 January 1987 vol 108 c757 4.52 pm
Mr. Max Madden (Bradford, West)

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker. I should be grateful for your advice as to which Department we should table questions on the distribution of some of the Common Market food mountains which the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food has today said will be distributed to some groups within the country. It would seem that the matter is essentially one for the Department of Health and Social Security. My concern is that if it takes the Government as long to distribute the food as it has taken them to sort out their scheme to give some people £5 a week, most of the food will perish long before it is distributed.

Mr. Speaker

I suggest that the hon. Gentleman consults the Table Office on that.
