HC Deb 29 March 1928 vol 215 cc1352-3W
Mr. GROVES

asked the Minister of Health in connection with the Government lymph factory at Hendon, if, when a calf has been used for the recovery of pus, it is used again after it has recovered from the first operation; if not, what is done with the calf; and, if it is killed, what is done with the meat?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN
