HC Deb 09 December 1960 vol 631 cc170-1W
Mr. Fisher

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what percentage of dogs and cats detained in quarantine have subsequently developed rabies after a period, respectively, of one, two, three, four, or five months, during the past five years; and whether this percentage has been different for animals imported from Europe, the United States of America, Australasia, Asia, and Africa, respectively.

Mr. Soames

No dogs or cats have developed rabies while detained in quarantine during the last five years. I am sending my hon. Friend some particulars of cases during an earlier period.
