THE EARL OF KIMBERLEYMy Lords, in consequence, I have no doubt, of my having been imperfectly heard yesterday, I am reported in The Times of this morning to have stated that the foot-and-mouth disease was prevalent in some parts of Ireland. What I intended to say yesterday was that foot-and-mouth disease unfortunately prevailed to a considerable extent in certain counties in England, and that measures would be taken to arrest its progress. With regard to Ireland, there is no report of foot-and-mouth disease having broken out there, and importation of cattle from England into Ireland is prohibited.
