HC Deb 24 April 1940 vol 360 c224W
Mrs. Adamson

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food whether he has yet received the Medical Research Council's advisory committee's report on food rations in regard to the requirements of invalids and expectant mothers on special diets for supplementary rations?
