HC Deb 23 February 1949 vol 461 c286W
53. Sir W. Smithers

asked the Minister of Food what are the amounts, prices and the dates of arrival of contracts made for new potatoes from Cyprus, French North Africa, Malta, Spain, the Canaries and the Balearic Islands; and if they will be free from price control on arrival.

Dr. Summerskill

No contracts have been made by my Department and I cannot give information about the arrangements made by traders. There will be no price control on resale in this country.
