HC Deb 29 May 1946 vol 423 c191W
76. Mr. Hare

asked the Minister of Food Whether he will now modify his decision not to issue a special cheese ration to building operatives in those cases, especially rural areas, where it can be shown that it is not possible for employers to set up canteens or provide packed meals.

Mr. Strachey

I regret that, for reasons I have previously explained to the House, I am unable to extend the special cheese ration to these cases.
