§ 95. Sir W. Smithersasked the Minister of Agriculture if, in view of the fact that feedingstuffs cost £32 a ton this year as 127W compared with £18 a ton in the spring of 1949, he will review the prices and conditions of production of the turkey and poultry industries.
§ Mr. G. BrownTurkeys and table poultry are not included in the First Schedule of the Agriculture Act, 1947, which provides for assured markets at guaranteed prices. When price control terminates on 1st July next, the price of these commodities must find its own level, and my right hon. Friend can see no purpose, therefore, in conducting the suggested review.
