HC Deb 27 January 1986 vol 90 c407W
Dr. Mark Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will use his best endeavours to bring to the attention of the farming community in Northern Ireland the high risk of farmer's lung this winter following 1985's wet hay harvest.

Dr. Boyson

Yes; steps have already been taken to make sure the danger is fully understood by the farming community. The Department of Agriculture for Northern Ireland's advisory staff and the farm safety officers will continue to publicise the dangers.
