HC Deb 01 August 1908 vol 193 c2097
MR. MORTON

I beg to ask the Secretary for Scotland whether he will instruct the Local Government Board (Scotland) to circulate to farmers in Scotland particulars with regard to the cultivation of tobacco.

MR. SINCLAIR

The duty suggested by my hon. friend is not one which seems to lie in the sphere of administration by the Local Government Board.

MR. MORTON

Then to what Department should the Question be addressed?

MR. SINCLAIR

The matter is one which affects the Treasury in the first instance.
