HC Deb 13 December 1950 vol 482 c162W
Mr. Vane

asked the Minister of Food under what conditions a child over five years and not attending school full time may qualify to receive free milk or milk at a special price.

Mr. Webb

A child of more than five but less than 16 years of age, who because of disability of mind or body is unable to attend school, may receive one pint of milk per day at the reduced price of 1½d. per pint. Children who are normally in full-time attendance at school but who are temporarily absent on account of sickness may, where suitable arrangements can be made, have their school milk taken to their home.
