HC Deb 11 November 1908 vol 196 c284
MR. SHEEHAN (Cork County, Mid.)

I beg to ask the Vice-President of the Department of Agriculture for Ireland whether he will explain why home-made hand-separator butter is entitled to be called creamery; is he aware that large quantities of such butter are at present sold as creamery; has the Department from time to time received representations from the Irish Creamery Managers' Association and other bodies on this subject; and will he state whether he intends to take any steps in the matter.

MR. T. W. RUSSELL

The Department have appointed a Committee with the view of arriving at a definition of creamery butter.
