§ 110. Mr. Sorensenasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies to what extent humane methods of slaughtering cattle are being employed in the Colonial areas; and what consideration has been given in promoting such more humane methods as are being or have been adopted in this country.
§ Mr. J. GriffithsThis is a matter to which Colonial Governments have devoted much attention. Several territories have made experiments with a view to adopting improved methods and I recently inquired to what extent they were proving successful. In the light of the experience gained I shall consider addressing Colonial Governments generally on the matter.
