§ 29. Mr. LIDDALLasked the Minister of Agriculture if he will take the necessary steps to prevent the importation of potatoes from countries known to have land infected with wart disease so as to safeguard the clean lands of potato-growing areas like Lincolnshire?
§ Sir J. GILMOURThe existing regulations under the Destructive Insects and Pests Acts have proved effective in preventing the entry of wart disease, and I see no reason, therefore, for the imposition of further restrictions.
