HC Deb 12 December 1911 vol 32 c2338W
Mr. GRANT

asked the President of the Board of Agriculture if it is intended to bring forward any legislation or to take any action with regard to restricting the spread of the Isle of Wight bee disease; and is he aware that three cases have been discovered of this disease in Cumberland?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

I would refer the hon. Member to the answers I have already given on this subject yesterday and on the 22nd November last. I have received information, forwarded to me by the hon. Member for Carlisle, from which it would appear that the disease has appeared near Keswick and Cockermouth.
