' He felt °that butter blends -'would have serious con- sequences for the dairy in- dustry, because experience in other jurisdictions has shown that once butter blends are introduced the butter part of the 'blend is constantly reduced -until it gets as low as fiver per cent. This could mean a reduction of as much Vas 15 per cent in the country's total market share quota. The minister also indicated that he believes consumers have the right to know whether they are getting •butter or margarine just by looking at it, and he saw go reason why margarine shoufd be .allowed to masquerade as butter.
