§ Colonel Carverasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food whether he will consider affording greater facilities for supplying harvest beer in the coming weeks as this is regarded as essential by heavy industrial and other workers?
Major Lloyd GeorgeI would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the answers I gave to the hon. and gallant Member for Epsom (Sir A. Southby) on 8th July, and to the hon. Member for Evesham (Mr. De la Bère) on 17th July. Active attention is being given to the prevention of possible shortages of beer for workers, including harvest workers, so far as practicable.
