HC Deb 29 October 1908 vol 195 c489
SIR G. KEKEWICH (Exeter)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he can state how long a time the experiment described by Surgeon-Colonel Lawrie, in his evidence before the Royal Commission on vivisection as having been made by Dr. Gaskell, lasted, including the time occupied in the dissection of the necks of two dogs, and during how much, if any, of that time an anæsthetic was employed upon both or either of the dogs; and, if an anæsthetic was used, what anæsthetic it was.

MR. GLADSTONE

Particulars of the experiments are to be found in the evidence given before the Royal Commission. I cannot further discuss in this House a case which is under the consideration of the Commission.
