HC Deb 13 March 1939 vol 345 c44W
Brigadier-General Brown

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether there is any difference in the weight of frozen beef and mutton, and home-killed beef and mutton when issued as rations to the troops; and, if so, what is the difference in weight of these rations per man?

Mr. Hore-Belisha

The scale of meat included in the standard ration at home stations is the same whether fresh or frozen meat is in issue.
