HL Deb 30 January 1979 vol 398 c122WA
Lord HOUGHTON of SOWERBY

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether, as part of their present consideration of further measures for the protection of horses, they will stipulate that all auctioneers conducting horse sales shall be members of the Auctioneers Institute or other approved body.

Lord STRABOLGI

This suggestion is one which the Government will certainly consider.
