§ MR. TREVELYANsaid, he would beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, Whether it is true that the privilege of importing live cattle from the Newcastle Market, which has been granted to Sunderland, has been refused to Tynemouth; and, if so, what are the circumstances under which that boon has been conceded to the one borough and withheld from the other?
§ MR. WALPOLEsaid, in reply, that the privilege of importing live cattle from Newcastle had been granted to Sunderland. It was also true that applications had been made not only from Tynemouth but from other places that the same privilege should be conceded to them. It was not, however, thought advisable at present, except under special circumstances, to remove the restrictions that existed.
