HC Deb 03 May 1951 vol 487 c155W
Mr. Hare

asked the Minister of Agriculture if he can now give details of the new prices for eggs, month by month, for the coming 12 months.

Mr. T. Williams

Full details of the seasonal scale of prices to be paid by licensed packing stations for hen eggs during the year ending on 31st March, 1952, have not yet been finally settled, and in any event I am not prepared to disclose in advance the exact dates on which price increases will take place, as this might lead to a hold up of supplies.
