asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Education at how many schools in the county of Carmarthen provision is made for the supply of milk to children during school hours and how many schools made no such provision?

Mr. Lindsay

According to returns from the schools showing the position on 31st March, 1937, provision for the supply of liquid milk to school children was made on that date in 172 public elementary school departments in the administrative county of Carmarthen. Of the remainder, one department provided dried milk only and 19 departments made no such provision. Liquid milk was provided in all the departments in the borough of Llanelly, and in 10 out of 12 departments in the borough of Carmarthen, where the remaining two departments provided dried milk.
