HC Deb 20 February 1905 vol 141 c602
MR. EDWARD MITCHELL (Fermanagh, N.)

I beg to ask the hon. Member for North Huntingdonshire, as representing the Board of Agriculture, whether he can say if it is the intention of the Government to allow American store cattle into England and Scotland immediately; and, if so, can he say whether the Government have taken into consideration the loss that must arise to Irish farmers in consequence thereof.

MR. AILWYN FELLOWES (Huntingdonshire, Ramsey)

I would refer the hon. Gentleman to my reply to a somewhat similar Question from the hon. Member for East Cork on the 16th inst. —Dagger; I then stated that my noble friend was of opinion that any amendment of the law in the direction indicated would be undesirable.
