§ 63. Mr. David Watkinsasked the Secretary of State for Defence what measures are being taken by the Army to meet the catering needs of the large numbers of forces returning to the United Kingdom.
§ Mr. Boyden:Units returning have their own organisation and establishment for catering. Those returning to the Aldershot area will however get the benefits of a new group catering service providing a food factory from which prepared foods ready for cooking, confectionery, and cooked pressed meats will be available to units. This system which is run by the Army Catering Corps gives a better service at lower administrative cost. We hope to extend this imaginative concept of Service catering.
