HL Deb 01 May 1991 vol 528 c29WA
Lord Craigton

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether there is any zoo of a major capital city, other than London, where public funds do not contribute at least 40 per cent. of annual costs, and if so, which they are.

Baroness Blatch

The department does not have reliable information about this. However no zoo in England receives an annual subsidy from Government.
