HC Deb 27 October 1970 vol 805 cc15-6W
Mr. Wolrige-Gordon

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether he will arrange for beef carcase types, as required by the main marketing centres in the United Kingdom, to be identified as a guide to producers; and whether he will consult with each region of the Meat Traders Organisation.

Mr. Anthony Stodart

No. The grading of beef carcases according to regional requirements would be a matter for discussion between producers, trade interests and the Meat and Livestock Commission.
