§ 41. Colonel Dayasked the hon. Member for Monmouth, as representing the Forestry Commissioners, whether any notices have been issued by the Forestry 1357 Commission drawing attention to the fact that when wild flowers are picked young forest trees are frequently pulled up or broken; if so, to whom these notices have been issued; and what publicity has been given to these notices?
§ Sir LEOLIN FORESTIER-WALKER (Forestry Commissioner)The Forestry Commission have asked the Automobile Association to draw the attention of their members to the fact that, when picking wild flowers, individuals sometimes thoughtlessly pull up or break off young forest trees without realising that they are destroying plants. No other notices on the subject have been issued.
§ Colonel DAYCannot notices also be posted on the lands affected?
§ Sir L. FORESTIER-WALKERWe can only deal with our own forest areas.
§ Colonel DAYCould not notices be printed in bold type so that people might read them?
