HC Deb 19 March 1926 vol 193 c754W
Mr. STEPHEN MITCHELL

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he is aware that sheep worrying appears to be on the increase, and does he propose to take any action in the matter?

Sir J. GILMOUR

I am, of course, aware of the occurrence of cases of sheep worrying, but I am not satisfied that the number is on the increase. I am making certain inquiries with a view to considering whether any action on my part is called for.
