Milk Distribution

56.

Mr. Symonds
asked the Minister of Food when he expects to be able to restore to the consumer freedom of choice of milkman.

Mr. Strachey
As I have already informed the House, there is a Committee reviewing milk distribution. My hon. Friend can rest assured when I consider its report and recommendations, I shall keep this aspect of the matter in mind.

Mr. Symonds
Is it a fact that the main opposition to the restoration comes from the dairymen's association?

Mr. Strachey
No, Sir. I could not endorse that.
