asked Her Majesty's Government:What percentage of meat imported from the EEC into Dover and Newhaven during the present year has been found to be contaminated and bearing false veterinary and inspection certificates.

Information provided by the port health inspectorate at these ports indicates that, so far this year, approximately 3 per cent. of consignments of meat landed at the two ports have been rejected on account of faults in certification. Approximately 0.5 per cent. of the consignments landed have been rejected on account of contamination of the meat.House adjourned at nine minutes before nine o'clock.
