Supply of Milk and Other Foods.
The national scheme for the supply of dried milk and vitamin
products to mothers and children which is operated by the Welfare
Centres has to a large extent replaced the provision which was previously
made by the Council. A limited range of other food and
vitamin products, including proprietary brands of dried milk, are
available at the clinics under the Council's own arrangements. These
are available at cost price or free in necessitous cases. The value
of the sale of these commodities is in the region of £700 per annum,
mostly in respect of dried milk. The free issues during 1944 were
as follows:—
Cow and Gate Dried Milk 101b.
Cod Liver Oil and Malt 11b.
