HC Deb 26 February 1948 vol 447 cc347-8W
5. Mr. G. Thomas

asked the Minister of Education the number of schools in Wales where milk is not given to the children; the reasons for this omission; and whether he will name the schools concerned.

Mr. Tomlinson

Thirty-three grant-aided schools in Wales and Monmouthshire are not receiving milk under the Milk in Schools Scheme. Difficulties in obtaining a suitable supply account for a number of these cases: every effort is being made to overcome the difficulties. I will send my hon. Friend the names of the 33 schools.
