HC Deb 08 December 1970 vol 808 c59W
8. Sir J. Langford-Holt

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether he will take steps to see that bottles of spirits are marked with alcoholic content as a percentage with the discontinuation of the present proof-marking, in view of the confusion it causes.

Mr. Anthony Stodart

No. I do not consider that a change in the law is necessary at present.
