HC Deb 17 March 1899 vol 68 c1138
MR. WEIR

I beg to ask the President of the Board of Agriculture whether he has yet been able to arrange for the official Returns of prices received under the Markets and Fairs (Weighing of Cattle) Act, 1891, to be published weekly instead of quarterly?

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

The suggestion of the honourable Member has not been lost sight of, but for the reasons which I explained last year, we do not feel able to give effect to it at the present time.
