HC Deb 09 May 1895 vol 33 cc813-4
MR. W. FIELD (Dublin, St. Patrick)

I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board whether the Government intend to take any action upon the publication of the Bovine Tuberculosis Report; and whether those interested will be consulted regarding future legislation?

MR. SHAW-LEFEVRE

The Report has only been in the hands of the Government a few days, and there has been no time yet to come to any conclusion upon it.

MR. W. FIELD

asked whether the Government would consider the matter in the immediate future. The tuberculosis inquiry had been going on for some years?

MR. SHAW-LEFEVRE

The Report has been in our hands only for about a week. The Report is a very exhaustive one, and in a very short time the House will be in a position to come to a conclusion in reference to it.
