Graham-Littleasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food, with regard to the instructions issued by his Department to controlled millers and signed by an officer of the Ministry, who is himself a representative of trade interests concerned, whether, as many of these instructions are not merely technical directions but involve policy conflicting with published Statutory Rules and Orders, he will reconsider his refusal to make arrangements by which Members may be possessed confidentially, if necessary, of the text of these instructions immediately upon their issue?
Major Lloyd GeorgeNo, Sir, I cannot accept the accuracy of either the statements or the implications in my hon. Friend's Question.
