HC Deb 08 November 1950 vol 480 c56W
61. Mr. Thornton-Kemsley

asked the Minister of Food what steps are being taken to prevent a substantial reduction in the meat ration in the New Year.

Mr. F. Willey

We are buying all the meat that we can get at a reasonable price and we have done our best to accumulate stocks of meat during the past few months while home production has been at its peak; but I am not going to speculate about the level of the ration next year.
