HC Deb 08 December 1947 vol 445 cc779-80
49. Mr. G. Williams

asked the Minister of Agriculture when the Government expect to implement their intention to introduce legislation concerning unregistered veterinary surgeons on the lines proposed by the Chancellor Committee.

Mr. T. Williams

I am unable to say at present.

Mr. G. Williams

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that many of these unregistered veterinary surgeons are being victimised by this long delay, and will he hurry the matter up?

Mr. T. Williams

I could not agree with the hon. Gentleman more, but we have been in constant negotiation with the various interests, and I shall be as happy as he when it is possible to introduce the Measure.
