§ 53. Mr. D. Scottasked the Minister of Food if he is aware of the hardship caused to innkeepers and other caterers 18W in having to surrender to his Department half the carcase of a bacon pig fed by them; and if he will modify the present regulations.
§ Mr. WebbIt is still necessary to share our supplies of pork and bacon fairly over the whole population. I do not think the present arrangements are unreasonable, and I am not prepared to change them at present. If I did I would be extending the area of hardship from caterers and innkeepers to the consumer.
