40. Mr. Ballengerasked the Minister of Agriculture whether he has received a report from the Fleming Committee on the sugar-beet claim against Oxford University?
§ Sir R. Dorman-SmithThe Tribunal presided over by Lord Fleming has awarded that of the total sum of £75,771 claimed by the University there should be contributed by the Ministry the sum of £51,584, leaving the sum of £24,187 to be borne by the University, and Parliament will be asked in the Estimates for the ensuing year to provide the funds to enable the award to be implemented.
§ Mr. BellengerIn view of the large amount of public money which is to be spent in connection with this matter will the right hon. and gallant Gentleman publish the report of the Tribunal and, if possible, the evidence which came before the Tribunal?
§ Sir R. Dorman-SmithI will consider that.
