Cattle

Mr. Charles Morrison
asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will publish a table showing the total number of cattle in each county, the total number in each county taking part in the Brucellosis (Accredited Herd) Scheme, and the total number in each county taking part in the Brucellosis Incentive Scheme, expressing the latter two figures for each county as a percentage of the  first figure, at the latest available date.

Mr. Gordon Campbell
