HC Deb 23 September 1943 vol 392 cc431-2W
Major Petherick

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food, in view of the differences of opinion on the merits of pasteurisation of milk and of its effect on the milk trade, whether he will, before making the sale of non-pasteurised milk illegal, submit the question for examination to an impartial committee?

Mr. Mabane

The Government's policy, which is set out in Command 6454, was adopted after a full consideration of all the facts, and no modification is contemplated at present.
