§ Mr. Macleanasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food whether importers of fruit or other food supplies have to keep a record of the firms to whom they sell controlled goods?
Major Lloyd George:The Ministry of Food itself imports a wide range of foodstuffs and, where this is the case, a record is available of the firms to whom these supplies are initially distributed. With regard to fresh fruit in particular, in those cases where the Ministry is the importer, the agents who distribute the fruit are required to keep an account of the firms to whom it is sold.
