HC Deb 23 March 1950 vol 472 cc2156-7
48. Captain Duncan

asked the Minister of Agriculture how many sheep, lambs and poultry in England and Wales have been reported to him as having been killed or damaged by dogs in the years 1947, 1948 and 1949; and if he will give an aproximate estimate of their value

Mr. T. Williams

My Department does not receive regular reports on the subject, and the information which reaches the Department is not sufficiently comprehensive or representative to give an indication of the position throughout the country or to enable me to make any estimate of losses.
