HC Deb 21 June 1883 vol 280 c1122
MR. R. H. PAGET

asked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, If he will be good enough to state to the House whether there is any sufficient reason why the very numerous Orders of Council, relating to the Contagious Diseases (Animals) Act, which have been issued since the Animals Order of 15th December 1879, should not now be codified and re-issued as one New Order of Council?

MR. DODSON

, in reply, said, that the codification of the Orders in Council was proceeding as rapidly as possible. It would, however, necessarily take some time, because it would have to be done with great care; and it might be found more convenient to have two Orders, one relating to home and the other to foreign animals.
