asked the Secretary for Scotland if it is proposed to introduce next Session a Milk and Dairies Bill for the prevention of the production and sale of diseased and dirty milk on the same lines as that recently introduced and applicable to England and Wales and the similar Bill already promised for Ireland?

As the hon. Member is doubtless aware, a, Milk and Dairies Bill was introduced in another place by my predecessor in 1909, and was passed through Committee and Report stages. I cannot at this time pledge the Government as to next Session's legislation, but there is every intention of introducing a Scottish Bill at the earliest practicable date.
