HC Deb 27 May 1908 vol 189 c1107
MR. BOWERMAN (Deptford)

I beg to ask the hon. Member for South Somerset, as representing the President of the Board of Agriculture, whether any case of foot-and-mouth disease in Great Britain has ever been traced to the landing at the foreign animals wharf at Deptford of animals known to be infected with that disease.

THE TREASURER OF THE HOUSEHOLD (Sir EDWARD STRACHEY,) Somersetshire, S.

The reply is in the negative.
