HC Deb 10 December 1931 vol 260 c2087W
Sir F. SANDERSON

asked the Home Secretary whether he has granted a licence under the Cruelty to Animals Act, 39 and 40 Vic., to any experimenter in this country to conduct experiments upon animals with the Calmette or B.C.G. vaccine?

Sir H. SAMUEL

Any licence accompanied by certificate A, with some exceptions, would permit experiments of this character. I understand that some research work on the subject has been done in this country. I will send the hon. Member references to some recent publications.
