§ Sir WILLIAM BEALEasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food whether persons residing within the area 1439W of the official scheme for London and the Home Counties who have hitherto been in the habit of obtaining their supplies, or part of their supplies, from their own dairies or farms outside that area, and who indicate that fact on their application for cards, will be given facilities to obtain supplemental supplies from retailers, if necessary, on proper evidence that their total supply is kept strictly within the authorised rations, or whether such indications on their applications will involve total cancellation of the cards, so far as butter or meat, as the case may be, is concerned?
§ Mr. CLYNESThe point raised is one among a number of special cases to which the Food Controller is giving careful consideration. Full instructions on such points will be issued to the local food committees concerned before the scheme comes into force.
