HC Deb 24 May 1901 vol 94 cc1118-9
MR. LAMBERT

I beg to ask the President of the Board of Agriculture whether he has fixed the standard for milk under the provisions of the Food and Drugs Act; if so, can he state what are the standards fixed.

THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE (Mr. HANBURY,) Preston

The answer is in the negative. I hope, however, to fix the standard very soon now.

MR. LAMBERT

Will it be fixed by 6th June if I postpone the question till then?

MR. HANBURY

No, but I hope to have fixed it within a week after the close of the holidays.
