HC Deb 27 February 1945 vol 408 c1252W
Mr. Naylor

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware that a well-known general stores, with branches all over the country, is charging 9d. for a packet of 20 small white envelopes, when half that price would yield a fair profit to retailers; and if he will take steps to stop this exploitation of the public.

Mr. Dalton

If my hon. Friend will send me full particulars, I shall be glad to ask the Central Price Regulation Committee to investigate the matter.
