HC Deb 31 March 1960 vol 620 c1493
21. Mr. Farr

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food the terms of reference of the group examining the use of toxic sprays in agriculture; if the group has yet met; and when its report can be expected.

Mr. Godber

As my right hon. Friend has already announced, the Group's terms of reference are: To study the need for further research into the effects of the use of toxic chemicals in agriculture and food storage, and to make recommendations. The first meeting of the group will be held on 13th April, but I cannot, at this stage, say when its report can be expected.
