HC Deb 23 December 1929 vol 233 c1894
64. Mr. W. B. TAYLOR

asked the Lord Privy Seal whether, as a means of solving the problem of unemployment and of assisting agriculture, he will consult the Minister of Agriculture with a view to taking the necessary powers to acquire uncultivated land, and other land coming into the market, with a view to the development of home colonisation and agricultural development in Britain?

The LORD PRIVY SEAL (Mr. J. H. Thomas)

I am bearing in mind my hon. Friend's suggestion.
