HC Deb 11 October 1945 vol 414 c459W
Dr. Little

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will give instructions that grassland in Northern Ireland which has been ploughed by order during the war and found unproductive for cropping will revert to grass again for an increased supply of milk, butter, beef and mutton.

Mr. Ede

No, Sir. In administering the Cultivation of Lands Act the Ministry of Agriculture for Northern Ireland will bear this particular consideration in mind.
