HC Deb 15 December 1950 vol 482 c228W
Mr. Hardy

asked the Minister of Food if he will now increase the tea allowance to people over 60 years of age, and living by themselves.

Mr. Webb

I am afraid it would be impracticable to vary rations according to the size of the household; and tea supplies do not enable me to increase the ration to all people over 60.
