Dear Josie,
It is not completely clear to me whether your colleague with “whole milk” means whole/raw milk as delivered from farm to dairy or whole/treated milk as delivered from dairy to retail/consumer.
At any rate, there are quite some investigations on both, which show changed over time as well as differences between cow’s races (see http://extension.psu.edu/animals/dairy/nutrition/nutrition-and-feeding/diet-formulation-and-evaluation/milk-components-understanding-the-causes-and-importance-of-milk-fat-and-protein-variation-in-your-dairy-herd/pdf_factsheet ).
For whole/raw milk, the Swedish Dairy Association has published several reports on the nutrient content. The latest I am aware of is by Helena Lindmark Månsson. The report is from 2009 and in Swedish.
(see page 3 - Kväve: nitrogen; Fett: fat). If you need more translations, please contact me.
For whole/treated (standardized, 3.5% fat) milk, The national Food Agency of Denmark published three reports on dairy products in connection with the Danish Nutrient Monitoring System,
(see page 40, Enkeltresultater, sødmælk)
(see page 46, Bilag 4.1 Sødmælk)
(see page 26, bilag 3.1.1 Sødmælk)
An interesting paper is
Comparison of milk protein composition in a Swedish and a Danish dairy herd using reversed phase HPLC

Hi,
The following is a question from one of my colleagues here at Health Canada who needs some help setting guidelines on new formula products for young children.
Thanks,

Subject: International Values for Energy, Protein, Fat and Carbohydrate Content of Whole Cows' Milk
Hello Josie,
Thank you for your help today.
The information we are looking for is for international values for energy, protein, fat and carbohydrate content of whole cows' milk.
We would request lower and upper bound, and the mean value.
If only protein and fat are available, this information would still be most useful to us.
(We are already aware of USDA values).
We are involved with a Codex Alimentarius' project to revise Standard 156 on follow up formulas for young children, and need these values to comment on the most desirable nutritional composition.
Thank you,
Deborah
