HC Deb 03 February 1931 vol 247 cc1630-1
70. Mr. LESLIE BOYCE

asked the hon. Member for the Gorton Division, as Chairman of the Kitchen Committee whether the butter used and supplied by the catering department of this House is wholly the product of the United Kingdom or the Empire, or whether it is wholly or partly of foreign origin?

Mr. COMPTON

In reply to the hon. Member, the butter used in the refreshment department of this House is guaranteed to be entirely of English origin and in no way blended with Colonial or any other imported butter.

Mr. BOYCE

Does the same satisfactory state of affairs exist in respect of other dairy produce, such as cheese?

Mr. HOFFMAN

From what part the country does the butter come?
