§ 70. Sir W. Anstruther-Grayasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Education what instruction is given to children for the purpose of teaching them what sort of food is good for them; whether he will issue a circular encouraging the promotion of such instruction; and whether he will recommend that any such instruction shall bring to their attention the nourishing qualities of herrings, both fresh and kippered.
§ Sir E. BoyleThe handbook on Health Education which has just been published by my Department includes a chapter on nutrition and food designed to help teachers in dealing with this matter. There is a reference to herrings on page 117, but not to kippers. I am sending my hon. and gallant Friend a copy of the handbook.
