HC Deb 03 October 1939 vol 351 c1841W
Mr. White

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Information whether he is aware that in a recent broadcast dealing with food prices, a list purporting to give the names of firms who had not raised their prices was issued, and that this list was incomplete, thus giving a gratuitous advertisement to selected firms; and whether he will see that this does not happen again?

Sir E. Grigg

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given on 28th September to my hon. and gallant Friend the Member for Kingston-upon-Hull, North-West (Sir A. L. Ward), of which I am sending him a copy.
