HC Deb 15 March 1894 vol 22 c308
SIR J. KINLOCH (Perth, E.)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for the Colonies whether a remonstrance has been received from the Dominion Government of Canada against the continuance of the Order for slaughtering Canadian cattle on landing in the United Kingdom; whether the Minister of Agriculture in Canada has furnished all possible evidence of the non-existence of contagious pleuro-pneumonia in the Dominion; whether the Secretary of State for the Colonies has made any representation to the President of the Board of Agriculture respecting the strong feeling existing in the Colony against scheduling Canadian cattle; and whether the Papers on the subject will be laid upon the Table of the House?

THE UNDER SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE COLONIES (Mr. S. BUXTON,) Tower Hamlets, Poplar

A very full and voluminous Report has been received, and is now under consideration. The question as to giving Papers should be addressed to the Board of Agriculture.
