§ 82. Sir W. Smithersasked the Minister of Food what imported fruits on arrival have to go to a pool and are subject to controlled prices; and what remains at the disposal of the importer to use at his own discretion and to sell at unrestricted prices.
§ Dr. SummerskillAll fruit imported by my Department is allocated and price controlled. Of fruits imported on private 167W account, only tomatoes must be pooled while pears, soft fruits and tomatoes are subject to maximum price control in the same way as home grown supplies. Other fruits are not controlled in any way.
