HC Deb 08 March 1866 vol 181 c1711
MR. O'REILLY

said, he would beg to ask the Secretary of State for War, Whether the horses of cavalry regiments lately sent to Ireland have been removed from England to that country; and, if so, whether this was not in violation of the Orders in Council for the prevention of the introduction of the Cattle Plague into the latter country?

THE MARQUESS OF HARTINGTON

said, in reply, that cavalry horses had lately been sent to Ireland. The Order in Council referred to cattle only, and not to horses.
