asked the Minister of Agriculture whether, in view of the fear that has been expressed that waste products suitable for feeding-stuffs from the urban districts would pass on diseases to livestock, he will issue the necessary instructions showing the action which makes these products safe, and make such instructions available to this House?

The Foot-and-Mouth Disease (Boiling of Animal Foodstuffs) Order, 1932, provides that any foodstuffs which contain material of animal origin, or have been in contact with such material, shall not be fed to stock until they have been exposed for a period of at least one hour by any process to a temperature of not less than 212 degrees Farenheit—that is, thoroughly boiled.
