§ Mr. R. Morganasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food whether, as wholesalers in the fish trade, recognising that his Department has fixed fish prices too high and that retailers have, through shortage of supplies lost much income have returned bonuses to customers, he will consider lowering these prices?
§ Mr. MabaneI have no knowledge of the practice to which my hon. Friend refers. If he will supply me with further particulars I shall be glad to examine the matter. I would say however that there is no obligation on any wholesaler to charge retailers any price higher than he thinks fair and reasonable.
