§ Mr. A. V. ALEXANDERasked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware of the feeling in the country that the protection of the consumer with 1785W regard to the sale of bread by weight, under Part I of the Sale of Food Order, should be made permanent by legislation; and whether the Government will now redeem the pledges given on this matter by re-introducing the Sale of Bread Bill which was before the House last Session?
§ Viscount WOLMERThe consumer remains, until the end of next year, under the protection of the Order, which was continued in force by the Expiring Laws Act, 1922. Early consideration will be given to the question of introducing a Bill on the lines of that introduced last Session.
