HC Deb 02 July 1952 vol 503 cc32-3W
Mr. Younger

asked the Minister of Food whether, in view of the need to maintain exports of jam, and for that purpose to keep the prices of jam at a competitive level, he will consider relieving jams which are for export from some, or all of the recent increases in the price of sugar.

Major Lloyd George

I am considering this question in response to representations from sugar-using manufacturers that the present price of manufacturing sugar used in exports is above the world market price of sugar.
