HC Deb 26 February 1973 vol 851 c304W
Mr. Meacher

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if national dried milk is still an approved milk powder according to Department of Health and Social Security standards; and what directions, if any, have been given about its use in hospitals.

Mr. Alison

Yes. National dried milk is manufactured for the Department and provided as part of the welfare food service. Hospitals have been told how to obtain it but its use is optional.
