HC Deb 01 August 1946 vol 426 c242W
79. Mr. Renton

asked the Minister of Food what arrangements he has made or will make in the immediate future for the purchase of animal feedingstuffs with the aid of the loan from the U.S.A.

Dr. Edith Summerskill

The purchase of feedingstuffs is a question of supplies rather than dollars and there is little prospect of additional supplies while the food shortage lasts. My right hon. Friend will not lose any opportunity to purchase whatever supplies are available.
