§ 90. Mr. RADFORDasked the Minister of Health whether his attention has been drawn to a recent case at Skegness where a man died as a result of drinking strong acetic acid which was labelled table vinegar; that in November last an SOS was broadcast by the British Broadcasting Corporation dealing with the same danger in Sheffield; and will he take steps to prohibit the sale of acetic acid in any form as pure vinegar or table vinegar or, alternatively, will he implement the findings of the Departmental Committee of two years ago in so far as they relate to a definition of vinegar?
§ The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the MINISTRY of HEALTH (Mr. Shakespeare)Yes, Sir. I would call my hon. Friend's attention to the reply to a question on this subject by my hon. Friend the Member for Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Central (Mr. Denville) on 26th March, of which I am sending him a copy.
