HC Deb 18 July 1972 vol 841 cc66-7W
49. Mr. Peter Archer

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what is the practice of his Department regarding the answering of inquiries relating to the control of foxes.

Mr. Peter Mills

This depends on the nature of the inquiry. In general, and under the objectives announced in last year's White Paper on Proposed Changes in the Work of the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (Cmnd. 4564), pest control is a matter for the occupier rather than the Department.
