HC Deb 29 July 1946 vol 426 cc112-3W
Mrs. Ridealgh

asked the Minister of Food why sealed bags of white flour, seen by employees of Royce's, of Dagenham, are being sent from this country to Italy.

Mr. Strachey

No white flour has been shipped from this country for consumption in Italy, but it is possible that the flour to which my hon. Friend refers was being loaded for use as ships' stores. If she can provide me with the name of the ship and the approximate date of loading I will have further inquiries made.
