§ Mr. Messerasked the Home Secretary whether details of licences granted to exhibitors and trainers of performing animals are still being collated as required by the Performing Animals (Regulation) Act, 1925; and, if not, how long ago is it since the practice was discontinued?
362W
§ Mr. H. MorrisonThe collation of these details is not required by the Act, but certain particulars from the copies of certificates of registration, which are transmitted to me by local authorities, are summarised up to date in the Home Office.
§ Mr. Messerasked the Home Secretary whether he will make inquiries as to the methods adopted in the training of the performing animals known as Royals' Famous Cats and Dogs?
§ Mr. MorrisonI will have inquiries made, but it would be helpful if my hon. Friend would send me the information which has prompted him to make this request.
