Sir P. NEWSON

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Overseas Trade Department., as representing the Ministry of Health whether the Government has considered the desirability of inquiring into profiteering in the rents charged for shops where continued occupancy is vital to the business?

I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer given by the Prime Minister to a similar question addressed to him by the hon. Member for Carmarthen (Mr. Hinds) on Thursday last.
