HC Deb 23 June 1924 vol 175 c63W
Mr. MILLAR

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether he has received representations from the local authorities in Fife, requesting that the foot-and-mouth disease restrictions placed upon the districts of Auchtermuchty and Strathmiglo should be revoked entirely or limited in their application to a two-mile radius, and that the Regulations should provide for the movement of stock out of the area to a slaughter-house; and whether he is prepared to give effect to the views of the local authority?

Mr. BUXTON

Restrictions were withdrawn from the parishes in question by an Order issued on the 18th inst. and operating at midnight on the 22nd inst.
