HC Deb 18 October 1939 vol 352 c894W
Sir J. Nall

asked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster why margarine manufacturers' agents are precluded from registration as No. 1 suppliers; whether he is aware that firms of this kind who sell to other wholesalers will be put out of business as the scheme now stands; and will he amend the scheme accordingly?

Mr. W. S. Morrison

It is not proposed, in the margarine control scheme, to introduce a special price to intermediary buyers, between the manufacturers and wholesalers. The question of utilising the services of manufacturers' agents is now being considered by the Margarine Manufacturers' Association and I shall give careful consideration to any representations which they make to me.

Forward to
