§ Colonel Carverasked the Minister of Food what is the controlled price of old hay; and what price has been fixed for this year's crop.
§ Colonel LlewellinAs the maximum prices at which old hay may be sold vary according to the description of the hay and other factors, I am sending to my hon. and gallant Friend a copy of the Order prescribing the prices. The maximum prices during June and subsequent months for old and new hay have not yet been fixed, but an announcement on the subject will be made shortly.
§ Colonel Carverasked the Minister of Food whether there is to be a controlled price of straw for the 1944 crops; and approximately how much is left of the 1943 crops.
§ Colonel LlewellinIt is not at present intended to vary the current maximum prices for home-grown straw. I regret that I have no information about the quantity of straw remaining from the 1943 crop.
