HC Deb 10 February 1972 vol 830 c406W
38. Mr. Armstrong

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if she will seek to amend the Education (Milk) Act, 1971, to enable children of parents who are unemployed or in receipt of family income supplement to receive free milk in schools.

Mrs. Thatcher

No.

Mr. Gurden

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science which are the local education authorities which have failed to make school milk available on sale to all pupils.

Mrs. Thatcher

In October no local education authority was making milk available on sale to all schools in its area though one authority, Bournemouth, indicated that it had made arrangements to do so later in the month. I have no later information.
