HL Deb 13 March 1990 vol 516 c1540WA
Lord Northfield

asked Her Majesty's Government:

How many deer were slaughtered in commercial abattoirs in England and Wales and in Scotland in 1988 and 1989.

Baroness Trumpington

I understand that in 1988 about 730 deer were slaughtered in commercial abattoirs in England and 150 in Scotland. In 1989 the figures were about 315 and 115 respectively. We have no record of deer having been slaughtered in any commercial abattoirs in Wales during the same period.
