§ MR. BOLANDI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of 982 Ireland whether the Department of Agriculture has received any further representations from public bodies or private persons interested in the bee-keeping industry with a view to checking the disease of foul brood in bees; and, if so, can he say what steps will be taken to carry out the proposals.
§ MR. WYNDHAMNo further representation is have been received. The Department is still of opinion that its scheme of instruction in bee-keeping should have an adequate trial before the question of taking additional steps by legislation can properly be considered.
