HC Deb 27 January 1930 vol 234 c651W
Mr. C. WILSON

asked the Minister of Agriculture, in regard to each of the provinces, the total number of milk producers and the number who are taking advantage of the facilities offered by the agricultural colleges for periodical tests to ensure a satisfactory standard of cleanliness in their milk?

Mr. N. BUXTON

I regret that it is not possible to give the information desired by my hon. Friend without examining a very large number of returns, at a disproportionate cost of time and labour. He has no doubt seen the general account of the work done for the improvement of the milk supply -which is contained in the Report of the Work of the Research and Education Division of the Ministry for the year 1927–28, published last year by the Stationery Office.
