§ 73. Sir Richard Glynasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food which of the Japanese societies mentioned in his letter of 19th June, 1968, to the hon. Member for North Dorset told British Embassy officials that they had received no report of imported dogs being maltreated in Japan; and what steps the Embassy have taken to obtain an up-to-date report from the society in this matter.
§ Mr. John MackieThis information came from the Tokyo Office of the Japan Animal Welfare Society.
As I said in my reply to the hon. Member on 29th April, I am making further inquiries and the Embassy will consult the society again.—[Vol. 782, c. 204–5.]
