HC Deb 23 October 1946 vol 427 c371W
84. Mr. J. Hudson

asked the Minister of Food the actual tonnage of barley issued to the brewers for each of the months during which the cut to meet the food shortage has been in operation, and what were the figures for the corresponding months in what is described as the standard prewar years, namely, 1938–9.

Mr. Strachey

As the reply is rather long and contains a tabular statement, I will, with my hon. Friend's permission, circulate it in the OFFICIAL REPORT as soon as possible.
