Fats and Cheese (De-rationing)

HC Deb 25 January 1954 vol 522 cc197-8W

52. Sir I. Fraser

asked the Minister of Food whether he can now announce the date for the end of the rationing of butter and fats; and whether he will indicate the level of the ration for the intervening period.

Dr. Hill

Though I cannot forecast ration changes in the intervening period, the rationing of butter, cheese, margarine and cooking fats will end on 8th May next.
