HC Deb 28 July 1952 vol 504 c69W
17. Mr. Wilfred Paling

asked the Minister of Food what steps he is taking to avoid the delay in payment to pig producers in the West Riding; and how long it will be before the arrears are overtaken.

Dr. Hill

Professional accountants have been helping the county chairman of auctioneers concerned during the past month, and payments are now only about three days overdue. I hope that arrears will soon be completely overtaken.
