HC Deb 04 May 1950 vol 474 c236W
145. Mr. Erroll

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will take steps to improve the supply of cigarettes and tobacco to Altrincham and Sale.

Mr. Bottomley

The Board of Trade does not control the distribution of cigarettes, but we have no reason to think that the level of supplies in Altrincham and Sale is lower than elsewhere.
