HC Deb 29 July 1946 vol 426 c110W
Sir G. Fox

asked the Minister of Food for what reason German prisoners of war were supplied in May with white bread and not civilian grey from Nevilles bakery at Slough; and in how many other cases this procedure has been adopted.

Mr. Strachey

H. W. Nevill, Ltd., have no bakery at Slough, and I can assure the hon. and gallant Member that this firm have, at all times, complied strictly with the Ministry's regulation that not more than 12½ per cent. of the flour used in making bread shall consist of imported white flour. If the hon. and gallant Member would care to send me further particulars, I shall be glad to have investigations made of the incident which he supposes to have occurred.
