HC Deb 27 June 1938 vol 337 cc1546-7W
Mr. Sexton

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether the Government has reconsidered its present policy of feeding men in the services on imported meat so as to give assistance to home agricultural interests by encouragement in producing home supplies of beef and mutton for the Navy, Army, and Air Force?

Captain Wallace

I regret that financial and administrative difficulties make it impossible to depart from the present policy, which has been fully considered by successive Governments.
