Returning Foreign Visitors (Food Parcels)

53.

Sir William Wayland
asked the Minister of Food what quantity of food raised in this country a Belgian or a Frenchman coming to this country on business can take back as part of his luggage.

Colonel Llewellin
After a mere visit here, none, Sir.

Sir W. Wayland
Does that mean that a farmer cannot give to a Belgian friend, who is starving, a bit of ham or bacon?

Hon. Members
Ham?

Colonel Llewellin
Yes, Sir, it certainly does.
