Former MP for Henley
A groundnut.
asked the Minister of Agriculture the cost per head per week of persons in hostels under his control last month; and how this figure compares with the cost for the same period 12 months ago.
Can the Minister say how the cost of food comes into those figures?
What is the cost of food per week, separated from those figures?
asked the Minister of Agriculture the cost of bread per week per head of people living in hostels under his control at the present time and a week prior to devaluation respectively.
asked the Minister of Fuel and Power what instructions have been given to regional petroleum officers in cases of motor car owners losing their standard ration books or their petrol coupons through the fraud of a third party.
asked the Minister of Food the number of gallons of milk used in the production of plastics and other commercial uses, respectively, during the last 12 months or any convenient period; what percentage this represents of the amount used for human consumption; and if he will divert the milk used for industrial purposes to provide an increased supply to the housewife.
Are we to understand from that reply that milk of any description, after being processed for cheese, is used for plastics? Are plastics a byproduct of cheese?
