Mr. David Adamsasked the Minister of Health whether he is aware that samples of undesignated milk collected and submitted to bacteriological examination by the Newcastle-upon-Tyne Corporation during last month showed: satisfactory 15, unsatisfactory 14, total 29; and what steps are being taken to improve the quality of this class of milk supplied for food into the Newcastle area?
§ Mr. E. BrownI have received recent reports on samples from the corporation though I cannot identify the particular figures referred to. As promised in reply to my hon. Friend's recent Question, local investigations have been made and I understand that as a result more effective supervision is likely to be secured.
