§ 18. Mr. William A. Stewardasked the Minister of Food what steps he takes to ensure that the foodstuffs and meat that he imports into this country are comparable with the pre-war standards.
§ Major Lloyd GeorgeMy Department tries to ensure that imports are at least up to pre-war standards of quality, by specification when buying and through inspection on arrival.
§ Mr. StewardIs the Minister satisfied that the meat is adequately inspected before shipment in order to ensure that the carcases are free from disease?
§ Major Lloyd GeorgeThey are certainly inspected, and no carcase with disease would be distributed to the public in this country.
