On a voluntary basis, tuberculin testing of milk was introduced in October 1937 and taken up by about 10 per cent of the dairy industry. Some big producers made publicity out of; for example Crown Estates and some big landowners such as the Duke of Westminster.
Tuberculin testing became mandatory in 1947, with the passings of the Agriculture Act, and the Milk Marketing Board would accept only TT milk for payments.
The Milk Marketing Board was dissolved in 2003 and now all UK milk is tested by the various dairy companies; with periodic visits and testing by the Diary Hygiene Inspectorate.

Can pasteurisation make tuberculosis affected milk safe for human consumption?
From Medicine.net "There is a form of atypical tuberculosis, however, that is transmitted by drinking unpasteurized milk. Related bacteria, called Mycobacterium bovis, cause this form of TB. Previously, this type of bacteria was a major cause of TB in children, but it rarely causes TB now since most milk is pasteurized (undergoes a heating process that kills the bacteria)."
