HC Deb 19 June 1950 vol 476 c52W
38. Sir W. Darling

asked the Minister of Food if he will revive the former practice of requiring the designation in butchers' shops of the country of origin of meat, mutton, poultry and other foods displayed for sale.

Mr. Webb

We hope to restore the prewar marking requirements as soon as we can, but there are still a number of difficulties, such as shortage of machinery to be overcome.
