§ Mrs. Doris Fisherasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what controls he has taken to prevent exploitation of the consumers when the change to metric measures takes place; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. GodberThe timetable for the application of metrication to food is not yet settled. It will be the Government's intention to work out beforehand in consultation with all concerned, including, of course, consumer interests, satisfactory arrangements which will avoid the risk to which the Question refers.
