§ Colonel Carverasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food whether, in view of the penalty on enterprise, he will reconsider the Regulation making it an offence for a farmer to feed even his own wheat to poultry if it is up to milling standard?
Major Lloyd GeorgeNo, Sir. My Noble Friend believes that it is in the national interest that, apart from seed requirements, all wheat suitable for flour milling should be used for human food, and is confident that the farming community realise the necessity for this restriction.
