HC Deb 06 July 1949 vol 466 c160W
52. Mr. Collins

asked the Minister of Food if he proposes to control the prices of home-grown apples.

Mr. Strachey

Unless there are enough apples to keep prices to the housewife reasonable, I shall have to retain price control. This year's crop prospects are still uncertain, so I am afraid I cannot as yet give any decision.
