HC Deb 05 April 1905 vol 144 c446
MR. FIELD

To ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he has received copies of resolutions from the Irish Cattle Traders and Stock Owners Association and the Dublin Victuallers Association asking him to introduce a Bill to identify frozen meat imported into Ireland; and whether he will confer with the Vice-President of the Department of Agriculture respecting this measure.

(Answered by Mr. Walter Long.) A communication, dated March 27th, on the subject of the marking of imported meat has been received from the Irish Cattle Traders and Stock Owners Association, but no recent communication appears to have been received from the Dublin Victuallers Association on the subject. No promise can be given as to the introduction this session of legislation of the kind suggested.
