HC Deb 11 August 1913 vol 56 c2040
1. Mr. CHARLES BATHURST

asked the President of the Board of Agriculture how soon it will be possible to provide out of Grants from the Development Fund suitable bulls of a good milking strain for use in dairy districts, and thus provide an additional inducement to dairy farmers to abstain from the slaughter of immature heifer calves?

Mr. GULLAND (Lord of the Treasury)

My right hon. Friend hopes that the scheme for the improvement of live stock will be in active operation very shortly. Two expert inspectors will be appointed within the next few weeks, and detailed regulations will then be issued without delay.
