§ 45. Mrs. Shirley Williamsasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether he will set up a public inquiry into the use of organo-phosphorous compounds in agriculture in view of recent cases of destruction of animal life.
§ Mr. PriorNo. I am satisfied with the existing arrangements for clearing these compounds for safety. Although no evidence has been submitted sufficient to justify a further inquiry into their possible effects, I am aware of public concern and the need for a constant watch.
