§ 26. Lieut.-Colonel Liptonasked the Minister of Food whether he can now make a statement as to the proposed higher fruit content of jam.
§ Major Lloyd GeorgeNo, Sir. I have not yet received the Food Standards Committee's final recommendations.
§ Lieut.-Colonel LiptonDoes that answer mean the Minister does not propose to make a statement about jam tomorrow? Will he give an assurance that at the earliest possible moment he will do his best to ensure, for the sake of British fruit-growers and consumers, that there is more fruit and less mucilage in jam pots?
