§ 51. Sir HARRY BRITTAINasked the Minister of Agriculture whether he is giving any assistance to the movement which is now being carried out to encourage the consumption of more fish throughout this country?
Mr. GUINNESSThe movement promoted by the British Trawlers' Federation to encourage the consumption of fish in this country has my warmest approval and will have all the support which I can give it. I am discussing with the Empire Marketing Board to what extent that body will in the course of its normal activities be able to assist and further the movement.
§ Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHYAre the trawlers of Acton in this movement?
§ Mr. MAXTONHas the right hon. Gentleman consulted the Minister of Health as to whether a greater consumption of fish would not be for the benefit of the health of the people of this country?
§ Lieut.-Colonel HENEAGEWill the Minister of Agriculture pay special attention to the marketing of British fish and not foreign fish?
§ Mr. THURTLEWill the Cabinet set a good example in this matter in view of the fact that fish is a good brain food?
