HC Deb 10 December 1946 vol 431 cc221-2W
Mr. Grey

asked the Minister of Food if he is aware that the vehicle being used to convey meat to the various butchers in the area of the Hetton Urban District Council is in an unsatisfactory condition; and, as clean food in days of shortage is more imperative than ever, if he will issue immediate instructions to remedy this.

Mr. Strachey

One of our local officers has looked into this matter and reports that the condition of the vehicle is now satisfactory. A meeting of all the parties concerned has been arranged for this week, to ensure that the improvement will be maintained I am glad to say that a new vehicle, which has been on order for some time, will be brought into use as soon as it is received.
