VISCOUNT GOSCHEN

asked Her Majesty's Government whether they will make a statement on the recent gift of stallion shares to the National Stud.

THE JOINT PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY, MINISTRY OF AGRICULTURE, FISHERIES AND FOOD (EARL ST. ALDWYN)

I am very glad to confirm that Sir Victor Sassoon has presented the National Stud with two of his shares in the stallion Pinza and one share in Crepello. I am sure that Sir Victor's most generous and public spirited gesture will be welcomed by your Lordships and by all who are interested in the blood-stock industry.

House adjourned at twenty minutes before eight o'clock.
