HC Deb 02 July 1951 vol 489 c188W
95. Mr. C. S. Taylor

asked the Minister of Food whether he is now in a position to increase the domestic sugar ration.

Mr. Webb

I see no prospect of a further increase in the sugar ration in the near future. At the moment, the weekly ration is 10 oz. following the recent increase from 8 oz. and, in addition, as I have stated, we are issuing supplementary sugar bonuses of 1 1b. per person per month, seven in the current year.
