HC Deb 28 September 1944 vol 403 c470W
Mr. Thorne

asked the Minister of Food how much breakfast sausage has been distributed; how it is distributed; and the amount that the butchers are allowed to charge per pound.

Mr. Mabane

The production and distribution of breakfast sausage is not controlled. Distribution substantially follows the pre-war channels of trade and manufacturers have been requested to base distribution on pre-war performance. The Ministry allocates meat for the production and manufacture of meat products but Toes not prescribe the quantities of particular types to be produced. The maximum retail price of breakfast sausage is 1s. per lb.
