HC Deb 23 June 1952 vol 502 c134W
50. Mr. Odey

asked the Minister of Supply what steps will be taken to ensure that allocations of steel to engineering firms serving the agricultural industry can be implemented.

Mr. Sandys

I am aware that difficulties are being experienced, mainly in connection with the supply of small sections and bars. Action has already been taken to increase deliveries to stockholding merchants, who are the principal suppliers of the firms concerned.
