§ Mr. MORLEYasked the Minister of Agriculture when he proposes to take steps to grade and fix the retail prices of agricultural produce?
§ Mr. N. BUXTONSteps have already been taken under the Agricultural Produce (Grading and Marking) Act, 1928, to define by regulations grade designations for apples and pears, eggs, tomatoes and cucumbers, all-English flour, malt extract and home-killed beef. I have now under consideration proposals for establishing statutory grades for other descriptions of agricultural produce. I have no power, however, to fix retail prices of agricultural produce.
