§ Colonel WEDGWOODasked the Food Controller why the application of ex-Sergeant O. C. Clarke for a licence to open a fish and greengrocery business at Bignal End, Staffordshire, was refused; and whether, in view of his rank, military medal, and long service in France, this case can be reconsidered?
§ Mr. McCURDYI am not aware of the circumstances to which the hon. Member refers, but I am making inquiries into the case and will write to the hon. Member when I have received a report from the local officer of the Ministry of Food.
