HC Deb 27 January 1958 vol 581 c2W
55. Mrs. L. Jeger

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what steps he proposes to take, under the Defence Regulations, to improve the quality and reduce the price of potatoes.

Mr. Godber

None. Regulation of the quality of home-produced potatoes sold in Great Britain is a matter for the Potato Marketing Board under its Scheme. My right hon. Friend does not propose to control the price of potatoes.
