MR. CLEMENT EDWARDS (Denbigh District)To ask the hon. Member for South Somerset, as representing the President of the Board of Agriculture, whether the muzzling order for dogs issued for certain parishes in the county of Northampton, includes the muzzling of hounds; and if any exemption has been made in the case of sheep dogs when at work.
(Answered by Sir Edward Strachey.) The order applies to all dogs, including hounds; and it does not contain any exemption in regard to any particular class of dogs.
