HC Deb 08 December 1943 vol 395 cc981-2W
Mr. Douglas

asked the Minister of Food whether he is aware that the harvest of olive oil in the Mediterranean area has been very good; and whether he is making arrangements for the importation of some part of it to relieve the shortage of first-quality fats in this country?

Mr. Mabane

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given to him on 10th November. The statement I made then still holds.
