asked the Minister of Agriculture what service schemes have been put into operation or are being drafted under Part VI of the Livestock Industry Act?

No service scheme under Part VI of the Livestock Industry Act, 1937, has yet been made. The Livestock Commission have received requests for the making of two service schemes; one from the Hide and Allied Trades Improvement Society and the other from the Livestock (Emergency) Committee, representing the livestock auctioneers of England and Wales. The proposals for these two schemes are at present the subject of discussion between the Livestock Commission and the organisations concerned.
