HC Deb 30 April 1940 vol 360 c554W
Sir H. Williams

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food the average number of changes per week in the registration of consumers; and whether he can furnish an estimate of the administrative cost involved in making a change in registration?

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

The information for which my hon. Friend asks is not available, and to obtain it adequately would require a nationwide investigation, which could not be justified; I am, however, taking steps to make investigations in representative areas, and I will communicate with my hon. Friend.
