HC Deb 06 November 1918 vol 110 cc2093-4
61. Sir ARTHUR FELL

asked why such delay is being experienced in the release of hay cutters from the Army when the names have been supplied of men available in this country, and they have been recommended for release, and the want of hay is acute at Great Yarmouth and Norwich, and, although there is plenty of hay in the county, it is not available owing to the dearth of cutters, and the horses are bordering on starvation in both the above cities?

Mr. MACPHERSON

Inquiries are being made, and I will communicate with my hon. Friend as soon as possible.
