38. Mr. DAY

asked the hon. Member for Monmouth, as representing the Forestry Commissioners, at what date the Forestry Commissioners decided upon the points with respect to the new afforestation programme due to commence in April next?

Colonel Sir GEORGE COURTHOPE

I have been asked to reply. The date was the 30th November, 1927.

Mr. DAY

Have the Government made up their mind with regard to this programme which is due shortly, and are not the public entitled to know something about it?

Sir G. COURTHOPE

I am not in a position to state.
