HC Deb 08 December 1966 vol 737 c339W
82. Mr. Edelman

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he has now completed his inquiries into contraventions of the Merchandise Marks Acts, by which certain wines shipped from abroad and labelled in Great Britain have been falsely labelled as Nuits St. Georges, Chambertin, Chablis and Beaujolais, when in fact they consist for the most part of a concoction of inferior wines from other districts; and what proceedings he is taking in these matters.

Mr. Jay

Any further action will depend on the outcome of inquiries which are still being made by the local authorities.
