HC Deb 27 February 1946 vol 419 c386W
Mr. De la Bère

asked the Minister of Food whether, in connection with the process of packing fruit under the new system of quick-freezing, whereby the public were able to buy fresh strawberries, raspberries and other fruits during the out-of-season periods, it is the intention of the Government to allow those factories that have made the necessary preparations for development to continue the quick-freezing of fruit.

Sir B. Smith

No, Sir. We shall need all the soft fruit we can get this year to increase the supply of the more popular types of jam.
