HC Deb 16 March 1931 vol 249 c1687W
Sir R. ASKE

asked the Minister of Health whether he proposes to take any action with reference to the representations made to him by various local authorities, urging that, owing to the high incidence of tuberculosis among dairy cattle, local authorities should be given powers to provide for the compulsory notification to them of the arrival of all cattle brought into their area for the purpose of milk production?

Mr. GREENWOOD

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given to my hon. Friend the Member for Halifax (Mr. Longbottom) on this subject on the 12th instant.
