HC Deb 22 September 1948 vol 456 c98W
75. Mr. Wadsworth

asked the Minister of Food if he is aware of the resentment felt amongst hotel proprietors and guests in Bridlington by the action of food inspectors who have searched guests' bedrooms during their absence; and if he will instruct his Department to abstain from this practice.

Dr. Summerskill

My information is that 11 hotels and boarding houses in Bridlington were visited and in only one instance, and then by invitation of the proprietress, were guests' bedrooms inspected. The inspection of guests' bedrooms is not the normal practice and my right hon. Friend is forbidding it.
