Irish Meat (Supplies)

HC Deb 29 November 1967 vol 755 c106W

Mr. Dobson

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether he is aware that supplies of Irish meat to this country are to be stopped, due to lack of containers arising from the foot-and-mouth epidemic; and what action he proposes to take to remedy this.

Mr. Peart

I understand that there is no such hold-up in supplies of meat from the Irish Republic.
