HC Deb 26 January 1945 vol 407 cc1144-5W
Mr. Goldie

asked the Minister of Production whether he is aware that inasmuch as wholesale firms are now delivering groceries in bulk to the retail trade instead of, as formerly, in paper packages, great difficulty is being experienced by retailers in obtaining wrapping paper and bags for the purpose of delivery to their customers; and whether he will take steps to relieve this shortage by a further provision of such wrapping paper and bags.

Mr. Lyttclton

I would refer my hon. and learned Friend to the answer which I gave to a Question on this subject by the hon. and gallant Member for Leicester East (Colonel Lyons) on 25th January.
