Vol. 242 No. 7

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Smuggling of Calves.

10.

asked the Minister for Agriculture and Fisheries if there is evidence of calves under six months being smuggled into Northern Ireland from here; what steps he is taking to combat it; whether the regulation prohibiting the export of calves under six months to Britain also applies to Northern Ireland; and whether special export licences can be or have been at any time issued for such exports to Northern Ireland or Britain.

A licence is not required to export calves to the Six Counties. Animal health considerations preclude the export of unweaned calves to Britain.
