HC Deb 25 June 1952 vol 502 cc171-2W
48. Mr. de Freitas

asked the Minister of Food what action he has taken on the resolution sent to him by the Lincoln and District Trades Council criticising as unhygienic the present methods of meat distribution in the city of Lincoln.

Major Lloyd George

According to the inquiries I have made, all meat passing between the slaughterhouse, the cold store, the Wholesale Meat Supply Asso- ciation's depot and the butcher' shops in Lincoln is transported in properly fitted closed vehicles. I should be grateful if the hon. Member would give me details of any case where these arrangements are not being carried out, and I will certainly look into it.
