HC Deb 21 March 1939 vol 345 c1090
1. Mr. J. Morgan

asked the Secretary of State for War what is the daily ration of liquid milk, covering all uses, issued for each recruit undergoing a course of reconditioning at the physical development depots at Canterbury and Burniston, respectively?

The Secretary of State for War (Mr. Hore-Belisha)

There is no fixed daily ration of liquid milk, but, on the average, each recruit receives not less than one pint a day.

Mr. Leach

Can the right hon. Gentleman say whether it is open to any soldier to obtain clean unpasteurised milk if he wishes?

Mr. Hore-Belisha

I cannot say without notice.
