HC Deb 30 November 1967 vol 755 c163W
Mr. van Straubenzee

asked the Lord President of the Council what was the daily consumption of oeuf en gelee in the Members' Dining Room up to the last convenient day before it ceased being placed on the menu.

Mr. Maxwell

I have been asked to reply.

This is considered to be a summer dish and in acordance with normal practice the à la carte menu is changed seasonally. Because of low demand during the winter this dish has been discontinued but it will be replaced in warmer weather.

The average daily consumption during the summer was approximately twelve per day.
