HC Deb 26 May 1884 vol 288 cc1302-3
MR. GRAY

asked the Secretary to the Local Government Board, Whether English Boards of Guardians sell for use as human food the carcases of cattle affected with pleuro-pneumonia, and slaughtered under the provisions of the Contagious Diseases (Animals) Act; and, if so, whether he can state approximately the number of animals so disposed of, and the average price received for the carcases?

MR. GEORGE RUSSELL

We have no information of anything of the sort being done by English Boards of Guardians.
