HC Deb 27 October 1970 vol 805 c2W
38. Mr. Pavitt

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will include a requirement that the name of the country of origin should appear on consumer packs when he renews Orders covering agricultural and fishery products.

Mr. Anthony Stodart

If my right hon. Friend and his right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry decide to renew any Marking Orders covering agricultural and fishery products under the Trade Descriptions Act 1968 I would in general expect the country of origin to be named.
