HC Deb 19 March 1947 vol 435 c72W
Mr. Stokes

asked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster the date on which he received the report on the Spartan Plan of bidding for consumer goods for the ordinary civilian population in the British zone of Germany against the actual quantity of goods received.

Mr. J. Hynd

This so-called report is merely anaide-mémoire prepared for the use of a member of the Control Commission staff on the working of a plan which was subsequently replaced by other arrangements under the fusion agreement with the American zone. It was not sent to me until my hon. Friend showed an interest in it.
