HC Deb 23 May 1928 vol 217 c1878
60. Mr. RENNIE SMITH

asked the Minister of Health how many calves have been used during the past 12 months in connection with the Government Lymph Factory at Hendon for the production of lymph?

Sir K. WOOD

421 calves were used at the Government Lymph Establishment for the production of lymph during the year ended the 31st March last.

Mr. SMITH

Do I understand that the whole of these calves were afterwards sent to be slaughtered?

Sir K. WOOD

That is another matter entirely. The question simply asked for figures, but the hon. Member will find that matter discussed in a Debate which took place three or four weeks ago in this House. I will send him a copy of the Report.
