§ Mr. Kilroy-Silkasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will outline the special arrangements that have been worked out for sheep exports to the Benelux countries.
§ Mr. StrangApart from the routine veterinary certification required by the Benelux authorities, the following extra precautions have recently been taken by 237W them in respect of exports from Great Britain:
- (a) sheep intended for immediate slaughter must not have been dipped against sheep scab in the 60 days immediately preceding export; and
- (b) sheep intended for breeding or further fattening must not, in the three months immediately prior to export, have been held in the area in which domestic sheep scab dipping and movement controls operate.
