§ 120. Mr. Turtonasked the Minister of Food whether he will now give details of the grade and seasonal variation in the 75W price of fat cattle, fat sheep and fat pigs that will operate from 1st April, 1950.
§ Mr. WebbThe detailed price schedules are being printed urgently and will be issued as soon as possible. Meanwhile, lists of prices during the next three months have been issued to our local officers and to all collecting centres and any farmer who needs this information can obtain it from his local district chairman of auctioneers or, from the area pig allocation officer as well in the case of pigs. With permission I will place in the Library a copy of a joint announcement by my Department and the Agricultural Departments issued yesterday which gives a broad picture of the effect of the new prices, and a copy of the interim price list to which I have referred.
