§ 27. Mr. James Hallasked the Home Secretary whether he is able to issue any instructions to those people who make it an annual practice to go to the Kent hop-fields; and whether they are permitted to make arrangements with the growers for their families to carry on the work of hop-picking as usual?
§ Mr. MabaneIt would be premature to give a definite undertaking that the normal hop-picking arrangements will be practicable this year, but if possible interference with these arrangements will be avoided.
