HC Deb 21 February 1991 vol 186 c254W
26. Mr. Ron Brown

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food how many carcases were condemned as unfit for human consumption during 1990; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Maclean

Inspection of meat intended for human consumption is the responsibility of local authorities. My Department does not at present collect information from them on the number of condemnations of carcases.
