HC Deb 04 November 1919 vol 120 c1324W
Mr. J. GARDINER

asked the Minister of Food when the accounts in relation to the 1918 potato crop will be ready; and when a statement explaining the loss as foodstuff of thousands of tons of potatoes will be made?

Mr. ROBERTS

The investigations into the claims in respect of the 1918 crop is one of considerable detail, and I am afraid I cannot state at the present moment when the final balance-sheet will be presented. Its preparation, however, is now being pressed forward as quickly as possible.
