HC Deb 08 February 1934 vol 285 cc1331-2W
Lieut.-Colonel MOORE

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Education whether he will consider co-operating with the Milk Marketing Board with a view to extending the present arrangements for the provision of supplies of good milk to school children at the lowest possible cost?

Mr. RAMSBOTHAM

The hon. and gallant Member is no doubt aware of the rapid increase in recent years in the number of school children receiving milk under arrangements organised by local education authorities or by the National Milk Publicity Council. My Noble Friend will be glad to co-operate with his right hon. Friend the Minister of Agriculture in any practicable proposals for securing a further extension.
