§ Mr. HARCOURTasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food whether the Department has any power to 662W require a minimum standard of size of eggs placed on sale; and, if so, whether Regulations will be issued that retailers shall grade eggs and sell at a reduced price those which average less than 24 oz. a dozen?
§ Mr. CLYNESI understand that the only eggs which average less than 24 oz. a dozen in weight are Egyptian eggs, which are already sold at lower prices than other eggs. It is not, therefore, considered necessary to issue Regulations to the effect indicated in the question.
