HC Deb 16 November 1920 vol 134 c1721W
Mr. REMER

asked the Minister of Food whether in re-controlling bacon in August, 1919, his predecessor followed closely the advice of his Advisory Committee; and, if so, why he has refrained from contradicting the public statements on this subject by members of that Advisory Committee?

Mr. McCURDY

Before bacon was re-controlled in August, 1919, competent advice was taken by my predecessor from trade experts. I have not had the advantage of seeing the public statements referred to by the hon. Member, but if he will be good enough to let me have these statements, and the names of the persons who have made them, I shall be glad to investigate the matter.

Forward to
