HC Deb 14 March 1949 vol 462 cc161-2W
79. Lieut.-Colonel Clifton-Brown

asked the Minister of Supply what assistance and priorities are being given to the sugar-beet factories to provide new plant and equipment so as to enable them to deal adequately with the acreage set as the present target.

Mr. G. R. Strauss

I am not aware that sugar-beet factories are having difficulty in obtaining plant and equipment, but if the hon. and gallant Member will let me have particulars of any factories requiring assistance I will see what can be done to help them.
