HC Deb 29 April 1913 vol 52 c1021W
Mr. MUNRO-FERGUSON

asked the Secretary for Scotland whether it is the intention of the Board of Agriculture to establish a station for testing cattle with tuberculin in Scotland, and to give facilities for testing cattle on the same terms as in the testing station provided in England?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

As the matter referred to belongs to the administration of the Board of Agriculture and Fisheries, my right hon. Friend has asked me to answer this question. I have received representations in favour of the establishment of a cattle-testing station in Scotland, and I am carefully considering the suggestion. I hope in the course of the summer to meet a committee of stock breeders in Scotland who are interested in the question.
