HC Deb 28 June 1973 vol 858 cc371-2W
45. Mrs. Joyce Butler

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food when he expects to receive the report of the Steering Group which is considering the implementation of the Food Standards Committee Report on the date marking of perishable foods.

Mrs. Fenner

A preliminary report from the Steering Group on Food Freshness is expected early in 1974 when it is hoped that its inquiries on date marking will be completed. This will be followed by a final report on food freshness generally at about the end of that year.
