HC Deb 20 March 1896 vol 38 c1465
SIR JOHN KINLOCH (Perthshire, E.)

I beg to ask the President of the Board of Agriculture, (1) whether he will arrange to place upon the Table of the House the correspondence on the importation of Canadian cattle which has taken place since papers were last presented to Parliament on the subject in 1894; and, (2) whether he will postpone the Second Reading of the Diseases of Animals Bill until the communication recently addressed to the Colonial Secretary, on behalf of the Canadian Government, respecting the importation of Canadian cattle, has been printed?

THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE (Mr. WALTER LONG,) Liverpool, West Derby

The further papers asked for by the hon. Member are in the hands of the printers, and arrangements have been made for their delivery on Monday next. This will insure the result desired by the hon. Member in the second paragraph of his Question.
