HC Deb 18 February 1943 vol 386 cc1938-9
54. Brigadier-General Clifton Brown

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether the subsidy of 75 per cent. for agricultural lime is still available and whether it will be available till the end of 1943?

Mr. Hudson

No, Sir. The increase in the rate of subsidy to 75 per cent. last summer was restricted to deliveries made during the period from 18th May to 31st August, since when the rate has been 50 per cent.

Brigadier-General Brown

Is my right hon. Friend aware that there is some dissatisfaction about this?
