HC Deb 22 July 1912 vol 41 c833W
Mr. TYSON WILSON

asked the President of the Board of Agriculture how it is that at Bolton cows can be moved across the highway for the purpose of being milked, whilst at Egerton, only a very short distance from Bolton, they cannot be so moved?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

The position with regard to the movement of animals both at Bolton and Egerton is identical. Some misunderstanding on the subject appears, however, to have arisen in the case of Egerton on the part of one of the officers of the local authority, with whom I am in communication with a view to prevent any further contravention of the Orders of the Board.
