HC Deb 07 July 1938 vol 338 c610W
Mr. W. R. Duckworth

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether his attention has been called to the introduction of the use in Germany of a new immunising agent for inoculation against foot-and-mouth disease; and whether it is proposed to carry out any experiments with this agent in this country?

Mr. W. S. Morrison

I have seen reports on the active immunisation of animals against foot-and-mouth disease in Germany. I understand that the Foot-and-Mouth Disease Research Committee have decided to initiate experiments on the lines adopted in Germany.
