HC Deb 17 November 1955 vol 546 cc52-3W
64. Mr. Willey

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether he will make a statement regarding supplies of butter from New Zealand and Denmark.

Mr. Amory

Yes. The production season in New Zealand has opened well and I am informed that shipments now afloat will provide plentiful supplies from mid-December. Danish butter production has suffered from the past dry summer, but supplies should increase seasonally in the New Year.
