HC Deb 22 November 1967 vol 754 c359W
104. Mrs. Joyce Butler

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food to what extent he intends to modify his proposals for permitting the use of cyclamates in foods for diabetics, in view of the doubts published by the British Diabetes Association, a copy of which has been sent to him, as to their safety if more than three grams per day are taken.

Mr. Hoy

The special considerations affecting diabetics were taken fully into account by the Food Additives and Contaminants Committee, and my right hon. Friend and my right hon. Friend the Minister of Health see no need for any change.
