§ 75. Mr. Hastingsasked the Minister of Agriculture what percentage of the milch cows in Great Britain have been shown, by test, to be now free from tuberculosis; and how this figure compares with corresponding figures for last year and the year before.
§ Sir T. DugdaleI regret that the figures which the hon. Member asks for are not available, but about 53 per cent. of the milk now sold in Great Britain comes from cows that have passed an official tuberculin test, compared with about 46 per cent. a year ago and 38 per cent. two years ago.
