HC Deb 12 August 1884 vol 292 c608
MR. ARTHUR ARNOLD

asked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, Whether a reply has been received from the Canadian Government as to the transit of cattle from Wyoming to this Country?

MR. DODSON

, in reply, said, the answer had not yet been received. They hoped, however, that it would soon be forthcoming.

MR. ARTHUR ARNOLD

asked what were the points which the Government had referred to the Government of Canada?

MR. DODSON

said, the statements of the recent deputation were submitted to the Canadian Government, and their views asked thereupon. Obviously it was necessary to have the co-operation of the Canadian Government, the basis of the proposals being that animals from Wyoming should pass through Canada and be shipped from Canadian ports.
