HC Deb 27 October 1975 vol 898 c363W
Mr. George Rodgers

asked the Secretary of State for Employment what has been the effect of the live export of farm animals for slaughter on employment in British abattoirs and allied industries.

Mr. Booth

My Department does not have statistics covering unemployment in this sector. I have, however, no reason to dissent from the finding of the O'Brien Committee that the impact on employment is insignificant.
