HC Deb 06 May 1937 vol 323 c1271W
Sir N. Grattan-Doyle

asked the Minister of Health whether, after the introduction of the recently-announced legislation to provide that milk for human consumption shall be clean and bacteriologically pure, he will consider means by which to ensure that bread for human consumption, whether in course of distribution or whilst held for sale, shall at all times be covered or wrapped in dust-proof material to reduce uncleanliness by handling?

Sir K. Wood

I appreciate the advantages from the point of view of cleanliness of the wrapping of bread, but on the information before me I am not satisfied that a general requirement on the subject is necessary.
