§ 9. Mr. Shortasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what steps he is taking to encourage the production of milk with a higher butter fat content than the present average.
§ Mr. GodberMy right hon. Friend set up a Committee in May 1958 to consider the composition of milk sold off farms in the United Kingdom from the standpoint of human nutrition and animal husbandry and to recommend any legislative or other changes that may be desirable. The desirability of a higher butter fat content in milk is one of a number of matters on which he looks forward to receiving the advice of the Committee.
