The remit pointed out that large quantities were wasted every season and, as growers needed ready markets, the Government should be asked to inaugurate a scheme to issue suitable fruit to schools, not on "milk in schools” scheme but particularly in rural —as. The conference a. v. oved of a remit that facilities be provided at consolidated schools, enabling the serving of hot luncheons for pupils who travel some distance.
