HC Deb 10 October 1945 vol 414 cc236-7W
Wing-Commander R. Robinson

asked the Minister of Food what has been the result of his conversations with the trade associations concerned as regards the practicability of imposing by regulation a minimum standard of quality for ice cream.

Sir B. Smith

Discussion is proceeding on the question of a minimum standard to be prescribed for ice cream when the trade have free access to ingredients including milk. As I announced on 4th September, I have decided not to lay down a standard for this commodity at the present time.
