HC Deb 27 February 1946 vol 419 c388W
Colonel Erroll

asked the Minister of Food whether, in view of the irregular distribution of poultry, game and offal, he will introduce a rationing system for these foodstuffs which is fair to all.

Sir B. Smith

So far as the rationing of poultry and game is concerned, I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given on 13th February to the hon. Member for Upton (Mr. A. Lewis). The description "offal" covers a large number of products, the total quantity available is relatively small and this, together.with the fact that these products are very perishable, makes them unsuitable for rationing.
