HC Deb 26 July 1957 vol 574 c93W
Sir A. Bossom

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he is aware that in New Zealand there is an Act prohibiting the sale of rabbit carcases and skins, thus removing the commercial outlook and enabling the problem to be dealt with solely as a pest and if he will consider similar legislation to deal with rabbits in this country.

Mr. Amory

I have all aspects of the rabbit problem under consideration, including experience in New Zealand, though in some ways circumstances in the two countries are different.
