HC Deb 23 April 1947 vol 436 cc110-1W
61. Lady Grant

asked the Minister of Food what progress has been made by the committee set up to deal with the speedier arrivals of fish at Billingsgate, especially that from Aberdeen.

Mr. Strachey

An increase in handling staff at King's Cross has brought about some improvement. The market authorities, the railway companies, the trade and trade unions concerned are trying to work out arrangements for a further speed-up.
