HC Deb 20 March 1947 vol 435 c115W
Mr. Bramall

asked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster when a promise was given by the Control Commission authorities to the German miners' trade union that fat bacon would be provided under the points scheme; and whether this has been carried out.

Mr. J. Hynd

The undertaking was to make bacon available. Fat bacon is supplied wherever possible in view of the miners' preference for it. The first issues against the points scheme have already been made.
