HC Deb 27 April 1978 vol 948 c641W
Mr. Walter Johnson

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will withdraw the instruction to the Potato Marketing Board not to release potatoes except for pre-packing or processing which is forcing up the price of potatoes artificially.

Mr. Bishop

A more general release of potatoes on to the market was announced in a Press notice issued by my Department on 25th April. Copies of the Press notice are available in the Library of the House.
