HC Deb 28 July 1922 vol 157 cc959-60

The Minister of Health shall make Regulations under the Public Health (Regulations as to Food) Act, 1907, for the prevention of danger arising to public health from the importation of milk intended for sale for human consumption or for use in the manufacture of products for human consumption.

Sub-section {1) of Section one of the said Act shall have effect as though at the end thereof the following paragraph were added—

(d) provide for the manner in which any tin or other receptacle containing dried, condensed, skimmed, or separated milk is to be labelled or marked.

Sir A. MOND

I beg to move, at the end of the Clause, to insert the words and prescribe the minimum percentages of milk fat and milk solids hi dried or condensed milks. This Amendment will enable me to make Regulations with regard to these products, as in the case of ordinary milk.

Amendment agreed to.
