HC Deb 25 October 1982 vol 29 c328W
Mr. Wigley

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what steps have been taken by his Department to speed up the approval of the introduction of sheep livestock transportation between Ireland and Holyhead; and what problems, if any, have been encountered by the agricultural and veterinary division in relation to these proposals.

Mr. Nicholas Edwards:

The Intervention Board for Agricultural Produce has received inquiries from two prospective importers who have been asked to provide detailed information of the proposed trade. Once this is received consideration can be given to the proposals.
