§ MR. SEYMOUR KEAYI beg to ask the President of the Board of Agriculture whether the Government can grant a Return from the registers under Section 15 of The Allotment Act, 1887, showing the rent per acre of the allotments which have been let since the Allotments Act came into operation, or whether he can say what is the average rent paid per acre on the whole of these allotments?
§ *MR. RITCHIE(who replied) said: Neither the Local Government Board nor the Board of Agriculture has any information as to the rent 188 per acre charged in respect of the several allotments which have been acquired under the Allotments Act, 1887. I am not, therefore, able to state what is the average rent paid for those allotments. I do not see that there would be any advantage in obtaining the Return suggested. If the hon. Member desires information as to any particular allotment, I shall be happy to endeavour to obtain it for him.
