HC Deb 26 June 1941 vol 372 c1108
50. Sir William Wayland

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether he will instruct county agricultural war executive committees that it is undesirable that any member of the committee shall purchase, or secure directly or indirectly, a financial interest in any farm which has been relinquished or sold voluntarily or compulsorily by a tenant or owner by reason of his inability to comply with orders served upon him by an agricultural war executive committee?

Mr. Hudson

I am not aware that there is a need for the issue of any such instructions.

Sir W. Wayland

If I send the Minister specific evidence of a case, will he personally inquire into it?

Mr. Hudson

Yes, Sir, certainly.
