1. SUPPLIES OF CERTAIN FOODS AND ANIMAL FEEDS. The Committee had before them Weekly Report No. 53 by the Ministry of Food (F.P.(M)(40) 170). THE MINISTER OF FOOD suggested that too much significance should not be attached to weekly variations in the figures of stocks of various commodities. In view of the irregular intervals at which convoys arrived it would be better to take a somewhat longer view, and the Committee might consider whether figures should in future be submitted fortnightly instead of weekly.
