HC Deb 07 February 1951 vol 483 c212W
61. Mr. Hurd

asked the Minister of Food to what extent the value of the sheepskins sold by his Department has increased in the past 12 months.

Mr. Webb

The average net amount realised for sheepskins during the year ending 30th April last year was about 12s. 10d. a skin. If current price levels for skin, wool and pelts are maintained it is estimated that the comparable figure for the year ending 30th April next, will be about 22s, a skin.
