HC Deb 03 February 1930 vol 234 c1525W
Major HARVEY

asked the Minister of Agriculture how many stations for grading and marking eggs, under the national-mark scheme, existed at the end of May, 1929; and how many have been started since that date?

Mr. N. BUXTON

165 authorised packing stations were in existence at the end of May, 1929, and 33 stations have been authorised since that date; 34 stations have either voluntarily withdrawn or had their authorisations revoked by the National Mark Committee on various grounds, so that 164 stations remain at the present time.
