HC Deb 19 January 1944 vol 396 cc190-1W
Mr. Parker

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware of the hunger prevailing in Naples and other parts of liberated Italy, while at the same time Allied troops can buy up food supplies; and whether he will approach our Allies to alter the rates of exchange of the lira and take any other necessary steps to put right this state of affairs.

Sir J. Grigg

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply I gave to several hon. Members yesterday.
