HC Deb 27 July 1949 vol 467 c140W
65. Mr. De la Bère

asked the Minister of Food whether, in view of the Government's pronouncement favouring the importation of any foodstuffs for which there is a consumer demand, if the necessary currency can be made available, the Government will, with a view to saving currency and increasing supplies, favour the importation of raw materials as opposed to finished products wherever practicable.

Dr. Summerskill

Certainly.
