§ 44. Mr. G. Williamsasked the Minister of Agriculture if he will take steps, through the agricultural executive committees, to encourage taking down notices prohibiting the public from agricultural land owing to foot-and-mouth disease, as soon as the ban on the movement of cattle is lifted.
§ Sir T. DugdaleMy veterinary staff are responsible for the removal of all notices put up by order of the Ministry. As regards notices put up by farmers, I am asking local authorities and my veterinary staff, who are responsible for operating the foot-and-mouth disease regulations, to do what they can to encourage the removal of these notices when the need for them has passed.
§ Mr. WilliamsThank you very much.
