§ 65. Mr. Peter Freemanasked the Minister of Food whether he is aware of the condition of the slaughterhouse at Penzance which was requisitioned by his Department in 1939; that it is open to the view of the public and all children that pass by, who are able to watch the actual slaughter of animals; and whether he will arrange for it to be closed pending more suitable accommodation.
§ Mr. StracheyI have given orders for this slaughterhouse to be closed immediately, and for the livestock to be diverted to Redruth and Helston.
