HC Deb 26 October 1949 vol 468 c152W
74. Mr. C. Smith

asked the Minister of Food to what extent the Sugar Refining Agreement (Approval) Order, 1937, S.R. & O. No. 221 of 1937, is still in force; and what advantages accrue to manufacturing and domestic consumers of sugar from that agreement.

Mr. Strachey

The Sugar Refining Agreement was modified in 1940 to take account of the responsibilities which my Department had assumed for the importation, production and distribution of sugar. I will lay a copy of the revised Agreement in the Library.
