HC Deb 19 February 1908 vol 184 c800
MR. O'SHAUGHNESSY (Limerick, W.)

To ask the hon. Member for South Somerset, as representing the President of the Board of Agriculture, if he can say whether any fancy or other descriptive name, approved of by the Board of Agriculture, is used with margarine in its sale since the passing of The Butter and Margarine Act, 1907: and, if so, what is the name so used.

(Answered by Sir Edward Strachey.) The Board have approved about 1,200 fancy or descriptive names for use in connection with margarine, but they do not know how many are in actual use.
