§ 34. Mr. Draysonasked the Minister of Food if he will release chocolate Easter eggs from the ration two weeks before the general derationing of sweets clue on 25th April.
§ Dr. SummerskillWe need to build up stocks to meet the initial demand and I am afraid that 24th April, which is the end of a four-week ration period, is the earliest date on which we can deration any sweets, including Easter eggs.
