HC Deb 15 May 1930 vol 238 cc2075-6W
Lieut.-Colonel FREMANTLE

asked the Minister of Agriculture if his attention has been drawn to the reported discovery in Buenos Ayres of an effective vaccine against foot-and-mouth disease; if he will cause inquiry to be made into the claim that with official aid entire immunity to the disease can be effected in two or three years; and if he will arrange for a systematic trial of this vaccine to be made on a wide and trustworthy basis in this country?

Mr. N. BUXTON

I have seen a Press report of the nature indicated by the hon. and gallant Member. I have at present no further information, but I am making inquiries.
