HC Deb 26 June 1939 vol 349 c20
39. Mr. Dingle Foot

asked the Minister of Agriculture what action the various Agricultural Marketing Boards have taken, are taking, or propose to take, to carry out the recommendation of the Departmental Committee on the Imposition of Penalties by Marketing Boards?

Sir R. Dorman-Smith

I regret that I am not yet able to add anything to the reply which I gave to the hon. Member on 16th May.

Mr. Foot

Seeing that the report has now been before the boards and the public for several weeks, can the right hon. Gentleman not say when he will be in a position to add anything to his previous reply, and what action will be taken on the report?

Sir R. Dorman-Smith

I cannot at present say.
