HC Deb 05 March 1946 vol 420 c35W
87. Mr. Snadden

asked the Secretary of State for War if he is aware that cattle and sheep are dying from what is believed to be escaping poison gas from containers stored in the War Department dump on Glinn's Farm, Kippen, Stirlingshire; and what steps he proposes to take to remove this public danger.

Mr. Lawson

I understand that the cause of the recent deaths of cattle in this area has not yet been definitely established. No further destruction of ammunition will, however, be carried out in the area until the results of investigations now in progress are known.
