§ 73. Mr. Turtonasked the Minister of Food his reasons for discontinuing the sale of fresh cream from 3rd July.
§ Mr. F. WilleyI would refer the hon. and gallant Member to the reply my right hon. Friend gave to the hon. and gallant Member for Wembley, North (Wing Commander Bullus) on Monday, 4th June. Although there should be plenty of milk for the liquid market it will be necessary to safeguard supplies for manufacture of National Dried Milk and cheese for the ration. For that reason, the use of milk for the manufacture of less essential commodities, including cream, will be prohibited after 30th June. To allow traders to dispose of their stocks, sales of cream will be allowed to continue until 3rd July.
