HC Deb 27 July 1953 vol 518 cc97-8W
105. Mr. Beswick

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power if his attention was called to the recent increase in the price of petrol; and if he will consider the reimposition of price control.

value of the baths concerned could not be computed without a disproportionate amount of work, but that the other information asked for is as follows:

Mr. Joynson-Hicks

My right hon. Friend is aware of the recent increase in the price of petrol and does not consider that the restoration of price control is called for.
