HC Deb 13 July 1910 vol 19 c353
Mr. STANIER

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Agriculture whether he can give the details of the proposed new Order for anthrax; and when it is proposed to issue the Order?

Sir E. STRACHEY

The new Anthrax Order is still under consideration. I am not at present in a position to give any details respecting it.

Mr. C. BATHURST

Is the hon. Baronet aware that yesterday a unanimous Resolution was passed by the Chambers of Agriculture in favour of a Departmental Committee being set up to inquire into the prevalence of this disease, and is he prepared to accede to the request which will be made to him on the subject?

Sir E. STRACHEY

When the request comes to me, of course I shall naturally consider it.
