HC Deb 07 March 1910 vol 14 cc1139-40
Mr. MUNRO FERGUSON

asked the Lord Advocate whether the scheme for additional staffing of the Local Government Board will include the appointment of an official with a practical knowledge of agriculture?

The LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. Alexander Ure)

The scheme does not include provision for such an appointment.

Mr. MUNRO FERGUSON

Will the right hon. Gentleman inquire into the extraordinary regulation affecting farm buildings in the different counties of Scotland to the detriment of the health regulations, as well as to the detriment of agriculture, owing to the lack of skilled central supervision?

Mr. URE

If my hon. Friend will communicate the details I will cause inquiries.
