§ Sir P. HURDasked the Under-Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs whether he will press for the removal of the New Zealand embargo on the importation of pedigree stock, especially in view of the proved effectiveness of the London quarantine station as a safeguard against the risk of disease?
§ Mr. HACKINGMy right hon. Friend the Minister of Agriculture and Fisheries discussed this question with the New Zealand Ministers who were here last summer, and they undertook to give it further consideration on their return 2005W to New Zealand. There has since been a change of Government in New Zealand, and the question of making representations to the new Government will be considered.
