HC Deb 21 August 1940 vol 364 cc1337-8W
Mr. Rostron Duckworth

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he will take steps to secure that Navy, Army and Air Force Institutes, in addition to supplying food for the Army, shall also control its wasteful use?

Mr. Eden

The Navy, Army and Air Force Institutes supply only a part of the messing requirements of the Army. The responsibility for the prevention of waste of food in the Army must rest with the military authorities.
