HC Deb 12 December 1949 vol 470 c217W
60. Mr. Osborne

asked the Minister of Food if, in view of his undertaking to increase the fat allocation to fish friers, he will grant a quota allocation to Wold Fisheries (Lines) Ltd., whos mobile fish and chip van covers a large rural area where there are no fish and chip shops, as indicated by the correspondence sent to him; and if he will grant extra fat to all vans serving rural areas.

Dr. Summerskill

From 26th February, 1950, any fish frier can have his allocation of oils and fats increased by 5 per cent. of his datum. I cannot give exceptional treatment to individual fish friers.
