HC Deb 05 March 1901 vol 90 c572
MR. BRIGG (Yorkshire, W.R., Keighley)

I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board that, as there is a want of uniformity in the existing regulations now in force respecting the sale of milk, he will, on behalf of the Government, bring in as soon as possible a general Bill giving equal powers to all local authorities, obliging them to examine the milk sold within their respective areas, and to take uniform measures to ensure its purity.

MR, WALTER LONG

I cannot give any pledge on this subject at the present time, but the matter is receiving my consideration.
