HC Deb 10 July 1946 vol 425 c86W
90. Sir D. Thomson

asked the Minister of Food whether he has secured all available palm oil in Malaya for shipment to the United Kingdom.

Mr. Strachey

We have purchased for some time ahead the entire production of palm oil from the principal estates in Malaya, and I am hoping to obtain a substantial part of the production of the few estates which are outside the main group.
