asked the Minister of Food what quantities of frogs' legs have been imported into the United Kingdom recently, or are expected to be imported in the near future; and what are the countries of origin.

Frogs' legs are imported b▪ private traders and are not distinguished separately in the official trade returns. I am unable therefore to give figures of past imports or to estimate what quantities may be imported in future. France is the main country of origin, but small supplies may come from other non-dollar countries under open general licence.
