HC Deb 05 November 1947 vol 443 c205W
60. Mr. Osborne

asked the Minister of Food if he will grant permission to the Leicester Rotary Club, which has been meeting weekly for 30 years, to entertain for lunch their normal number of up to 130 members and guests.

Dr. Summerskill

No. Since the Government's recent decision that the service of meals at social functions must be restricted, other organisations of this kind have stopped holding such meetings or have limited the attendance. I am sure that the Leicester Rotary Club would wish to co-operate in the same way.
