HC Deb 22 June 1949 vol 466 c22W
57. Mrs. Mann

asked the Minister of Food if he has any statement to make on the overcharging for sweets and confectionery, particulars of which have been sent to him.

Mr. Strachey

The housewife quoted in the newspaper report which my hon. Friend sent to me, could not name the shop where the overcharging was alleged to have taken place, so no enforcement action could be taken.
