HC Deb 28 November 1932 vol 272 c465
24. Captain CAZALET (for Mr. GROVES)

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether he has received any information as to experiments conducted by the Government of Northern Ireland in connection with Spahlinger's vaccine for tuberculosis in cattle; and, if so, whether he can give any information regarding these experiments?

Major ELLIOT

I have communicated with the Minister of Agriculture for Northern Ireland and am informed by him that satisfactory progress is being made and that an interim Report will be issued by his Department in a few days.

Captain CAZALET

Can the right hon. Gentleman say whether the results do not show that, in the case of vaccinated cattle, the experiment has been 100 per cent. successful?

Major ELLIOT

It would be well to await the report, which is just about to be published.

Captain CAZALET

Will the right hon. Gentleman make the report available to the House?

Major ELLIOT

I will consider that suggestion.
