HC Deb 28 February 1968 vol 759 c356W
51. Mr. Elystan Morgan

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, in how many European Economic Community countries foot-and-mouth disease is endemic; and what amounts of meat they export to the United Kingdom.

Mr. Peart:

The disease is endemic in Italy. It has been common in Western Germany in recent years but only one case has been reported since last December.

No imports of meat are taken from Italy or Western Germany, except for cooked meat.
