HC Deb 18 July 1955 vol 544 cc2-3W
17. Mrs. Mann

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what steps have been taken to ensure that the housewife is informed of the protection afforded to her by recent legislation against abuse of advertising, labelling and composition of foodstuffs.

Mr. Nugent

The recent legislation has been widely discussed in the Press and elsewhere. But in addition, as my right hon. Friend has informed the hon. Lady, we are considering whether information on these matters can be given in a form helpful to consumers.
