HC Deb 28 October 1918 vol 110 c1121W
Sir JOHN FLEMING

asked the Food Controller if he can see his way to reduce the standard price fixed for milk in the Aberdeen district, where the cost of production is understood to be less than it is in many districts where the price is the same?

Major ASTOR

I may refer the hon. Member to the answer given last Tuesday to the right hon. Member for South Molton, in which I stated the reasons for the adoption of a flat rate throughout Great Britain and the prospects of effecting local variations in producers' prices as part of a general scheme of control.
