Abstract
IN consequence of the spread of the Colorado potato beetle from France and Belgium into Germany and Luxemburg, the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries has made an order “The Importation of Plants (Amendment No. 2) Order of 1936” regarding plant imports into Great Britain. The Order imposes restrictions on the importation from Germany and Luxemburg of certain kinds of horticultural produce as from January 11. The restrictions are similar to those already in force with respect to like produce from France and Belgium. The provisions of the order require a certificate in one of two forms to accompany living plants, potatoes, raw vegetables and cider apples imported from the countries mentioned. Copies of the Order (S. R. and O. 1936, No. 1288), price Id. each net, may be obtained from H.M. Stationery Office, Adastral House, Kingsway, London, W.C.2.
