HC Deb 31 October 1984 vol 65 cc1055-6W
Mr. Steel

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will publish in the Official Report a table of public abattoirs in Scotland showing those which do and do not carry out ritual slaughter; and, of those which do, which require pre-stunning of the animal.

Mr. Younger

Licensing of slaughterhouses is the responsibility of local authorities, and the information requested is not held centrally.
