HC Deb 27 May 1935 vol 302 cc774-5W
Mr. GROVES

asked the Home Secretary whether the British Post-Graduate Medical School, Ducane Road, Hammersmith, is registered as a place for the performance of experiments on animals under the provisions of the Cruelty to Animals Act, 1876?

Sir J.GILMOUR

Yes, Sir.

Mr. GROVES

asked the Home Secretary whether applications have been made to register the criminal investigation research laboratory at Bristol and/or the laboratory at the Metropolitan Police College at Hendon as places for experimentation on animals under the provisions of the Cruelty to Animals Act, 1876;and, if so, whether such registration has been granted in either case?

Sir J. GILMOUR

No application for the registration under the Cruelty to Animals Act, 1876, of either of these places has yet been received, but I understand that the question of applying for the registration of the laboratory at the Metropolitan Police College at Hendon under the Act is under consideration.
