asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether, further to the letter dated 15th November from the hon. Member for East Aberdeenshire, he will announce his policy on the export of Shetland ponies under one year old.

As the hon. Member was informed in the reply to his letter, proposals to amend the present regulations governing the export of horses and ponies have been circulated to interested bodies for comments. I cannot say what changes may be made in the regulations until my right hon. Friend the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, and I have completed our consideration of the comments which have been made.
