HC Deb 27 October 1947 vol 443 c15W
29. Mr. Skinnard

asked the Minister of Food whether in view of the dissatisfaction expressed at the present method of distribution of goods in short supply on the datum line which tends to discriminate unfairly against the Co-operative Movement, he will institute a system of distribution on a basis of registrations.

Mr. Strachey

This is a very real problem. We are having discussions with all the interests concerned and I will let my hon. Friend know the outcome.
