§ Mr. STANIERasked when the Government were going to bring in their Milk Bill?
§ Mr. P. SNOWDENIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that more than twelve months ago certain clauses dealing with milk in a number of municipal Bills were withdrawn on the distinct understanding, derived from the right hon. Gentleman, that the Milk Bill would be introduced last Session, and that the right hon. Gentleman has given previous answers similar to the one he has just given; and whether, in view of the importance of the matter, he will give a definite undertaking that the Bill will be introduced at an early date?
§ Mr. BURNSI am aware of the facts. The delay is due to the hope which we—the Local Government Board and the Board of Agriculture—have that we may, by means other than a Bill, be able to remove three-fourths of the objections that would be raised in the discussion of the Milk Bill—by an Order of the Board of Agriculture.
