§ Sir R. Glynasked the Minister of Transport whether, in order to increase the supply of home-produced food and to enable rabbits to be placed on the market in as fresh a condition as possible, he will cause an investigation to be made as to whether firms, both game dealers and others, accustomed to the collection in rural areas of rabbits from farms, etc., should be less restricted at this time of the year in their petrol allowance in order that prompt arrangements may be made for the collection and transportation of rabbits to the market?
§ Sir J. ReithPersons engaged in carrying foodstuffs should apply in the normal way for any supplementary fuel rations required. Provided they show the need for using road transport, I have no reason to think that they will be refused the necessary fuel. I shall be glad to investigate any individual case of difficulty if my hon. and gallant Friend will give me particulars.
