HC Deb 17 May 1934 vol 289 cc1935-6
41. Sir JOHN PYBUS

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether he has received a report of the inauguration of the cleansing of oysters at Brightlingsea according to the method devised by his Department by means of an installation provided by the Brightlingsea Urban District Council with their advice and approval; whether he is satisfied with the result; and whether he will take steps to secure the provision of similar installations in connection with other oyster fisheries?

Mr. ELLIOT

I have learned with satisfaction that the cleansing of oysters at Brightlingsea has been successfully initiated and is proceeding with excellent results. The technical officers of my Department will always be ready to advise and assist local authorities who may be disposed to follow the valuable lead given by the Brightlingsea Urban District Council.
