History
Select Committees are ad-hoc committees of the Legislative Assembly of Ontario with specific terms of reference to investigate and report on a specific issue. This committee was established February 8, 1888 and was chaired by Alpheus Wood. It distributed a questionnaire to dairies asking them to detail any problems with adulteration of the milk supplied to them and the means to control such problems. The committee endorsed Bill 130, An Act to provide for the incorporation of Cheese and Butter Associations, 1888 which had already been introduced into the House.
