HC Deb 08 May 1933 vol 277 cc1219-20
38. Sir COOPER RAWSON

asked the Home Secretary whether he has considered the memorandum sent to him entitled "A Plea for our Wild Ponies," issued by the National League against the Export of Horses for Butchery, which gives specific instances of cruelty to and suffering by unbroken moor and forest ponies in this country; and whether he will take steps to prevent any future occurrences of a like nature?

Sir J. GILMOUR

I have seen the memorandum entitled "A Plea for our Wild Ponies," as issued by the National League against the Export of Horses for Butchery, and I am causing inquiries to be made in the matter.
