HC Deb 27 March 1928 vol 215 cc990-1
60. Mr. C. P. WILLIAMS

asked the hon. Member for Monmouth, as representing the Forestry Commissioners, the number of acres planted in the County of Denbigh during the years 1924 to 1927; and what the plans of the Department are for 1928 and 1929?

Sir LEOLIN FORESTIER-WALKER (Forestry Commissioner)

The Forestry Commissioners have not planted any land in the County of Denbigh, as they have not yet acquired land in that county.

Mr. MACQUISTEN

Is it the case that afforestation employs more labour than sheep farming?
