HC Deb 17 July 1946 vol 425 c202W
65. Mr. Carson

asked the Minister of Food whether he is aware that turkey and goose eggs are sold for 3s. each in shops and guinea fowl eggs for 1s. 6d.; and if he will take steps to price control and ration these items of food.

Mr. Strachey

I am aware that these eggs are fetching high prices but the annual production is hardly large enough to warrant their inclusion in the system of price control and rationing.
