HC Deb 18 November 1912 vol 44 cc31-2W
Mr. LARDNER

asked the President of the Board of Agriculture whether he is aware that cattle in the Argentine suffering from foot-and-mouth disease are killed and sent for consumption to these countries in a frozen condition; whether any risk attends the use of such meat by human beings; and will he state what information his Department have in reference to this matter?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

The answer to this question was circulated on Wednesday last.
