§ Major WHELERasked the Food Controller whether the control of prices for beef and mutton is to be abolished at the end of September; and, if not, whether he can make any statement as to the future control prices of meat this winter?
Mr. ROBERTSOwing to the uncertainty as to supplies, I have decided to maintain the control of prices for beef and mutton throughout the winter months. The scale of prices is under consideration, and an announcement on the subject will be made in due course.
