HC Deb 29 November 1951 vol 494 c161W
62. Mr. Crouch

asked the Minister of Agriculture what evidence he has as to the point of origin of the feedingstuffs used on farms whose animals have been affected by foot and mouth disease.

Sir T. Dugdale

The importation of animal feedingstuffs that would be likely to bring the infection of foot and mouth disease into this country is prohibited, and there is no reason to think that feeding-stuffs may have caused any of the present series of outbreaks.
