HC Deb 25 June 1951 vol 489 c95W
4. Mr. Hurd

asked the Minister of Food to what extent the allocation of dried fruits made to fruit wholesalers is dependent upon the quantity of imported apples they take through the year.

Mr. Webb

There is no connection at all between the two. The amount of dried fruit allocated to any wholesaler depends solely on the entitlement of the retailers and manufacturers whom he supplies.
