HC Deb 08 May 1930 vol 238 cc1130-1
77. Mr. ROSBOTHAM

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether he will make regulations as to grade designations and grade designation marks for shellfish?

Dr. ADDISON

The Agricultural Produce (Grading and Marking) Act, 1928, does not empower the Minister to make such regulations in respect of fish or fish products.

Mr. ROSBOTHAM

Does the right hon. Gentleman think that this is not worth consideration by his Committee?

Mr. McSHANE

Will the shellfish be consulted?

Dr. ADDISON

This matter has already been referred to the Committee to which my hon. Friend alludes.
