§ 68. Mrs. Ganleyasked the Minister of Food whether he is now able to make a statement regarding the control of poultry and rabbits.
§ Mr. StracheyYes. As a result of our experience with poultry this Christmas when supply and demand appear to have just about balanced at the controlled price we have decided to de-control the price and distribution of poultry as soon as the seasonal increase of supplies takes place. That will be about the end of June. I will announce the precise date later. Supplies are not yet sufficient to justify the de-control of rabbits.
