asked the Minister of Food if he will now give the decision of the local food control committee regarding the simultaneous issue of eight weeks' bacon ration to the Manor House Hostel, Shanklin, Isle of Wight, in the last week of February.

I understand that the food control committee has instructed a solicitor with a view to a prosecution.

On a point of Order. I wish to say that if the prosecution succeeds, I shall move that another Lynskey Tribunal be set up.
