HC Deb 23 June 1947 vol 439 c10W
72. Mr. Thornton-Kemsley

asked the Minister of Food if he will consider issuing an appeal to food retailers to give priority in queues to elderly people.

Dr. Summerskill

This is a matter which might well be left to the good sense of the British public who, I believe, are quite prepared to help the frail and elderly.
