HC Deb 17 March 1926 vol 193 cc399-400
4. Lieut.-Commander ASTBURY

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he is aware that English horses are being sold from Holland to Germany with false certificates that are imitations of certificates issued by the Hackney Horse Society, which provides for the registration and purity of this valuable breed; and if, in the public interest, he will endeavour to prevent this practice?

Mr. LOCKER-LAMPSON

Allegations of the nature indicated by the hon. and gallant Member have reached me, and I am making inquiries as to the possibility of official action.
