HC Deb 03 July 1939 vol 349 cc907-8
34. Mr. V. Adams

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether he will give an assurance that the Poultry Industry Bill will be passed into law before the summer Recess?

Sir R. Dorman-Smith

While the Government are anxious that the Poultry Industry Bill should proceed as rapidly as possible and have recently taken steps designed to accelerate its progress, I regret that it is impossible, in view of the heavy Parliamentary programme, for me to give the assurance desired by my hon. Friend.

Mr. Adams

Is my right hon. and gallant Friend aware of the importance attached by the industry to the passage of this Bill?

Sir R. Dorman-Smith

Yes, Sir, that is why we introduced it in another place.
