HC Deb 30 April 1923 vol 163 c1006W
Mr. RHYS DAVIES

asked the Minister of Health whether he is aware that the Deptford Cattle Market has been closed for some time as a slaughtering centre; and whether, in view of the removal of the embargo on Canadian cattle, and the possibility of more slaughtering being done in this country as a consequence, he will take the necessary steps to see that the market is immediately opened in erder to provide work for the unemployed in connection with the slaughtering and allied trades?

Mr. GWYNNE

I have been asked to reply. I would refer the hon. Member to the replies which I gave on 10th and 26th April to the hon. Members for Central Southwark (Mr. Gilbert) and Deptford (Mr. Bowerman) respectively.
