Mr. Ron Davies
To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what is his estimate of the percentage of the British sheep flock which had scrapie in 1984.
Mr. Maclean
Accurate information about its incidence is not available since scrapie is not a notifiable disease but it is currently estimated to affect about 10 per cent. of British sheep flocks.
