HC Deb 23 October 1946 vol 427 c372W
Air-Commodore Harvey

asked the Minister of Food if he is aware of the dissatisfaction among Danish food exporters at the excessive delay on the part of his Ministry in settling payments for food sent to this country; and if he will expedite such payments.

Mr. Strachey

I have had no complaints of delay in making payment for food from Denmark. For butter, cheese, bacon and eggs all but a small balance of the price is paid on shipment. If the hon. Member will give me details of any complaints which have come to his notice I will look into them.
