§ Mr. Staintonasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what was the estimated tonnage of refined sugar stocks in the United Kingdom which was subject to distribution payment adjustments under the Sugar Act, 1956, on each of the past 10 occasions when such adjustments were made; and 118W what was the total financial magnitude of each such adjustment.
§ Mr. Scott-HopkinsI regret that it is not possible to give even an approximate estimate of the amount of sugar in the pipe-line between refiner and consumer on these occasions and it is therefore impossible to calculate the financial magnitude of the changes in its market value due to adjustments in the rate of distribution payment.
