HC Deb 22 October 1945 vol 414 cc1677-8
60. Mr. Dye

asked the Minister of Agriculture when he proposes to reconstitute the county war agricultural executive committees from lists of nominees to be submitted to him, with the retention of compulsory powers to ensure the maximum amount of food being produced from British farms.

Mr. T. Williams

Active consideration is being given to such adaptations in wartime arrangements as may be necessary to ensure the full development of home food production as indicated in the Gracious Speech. I hope to be in a posi- tion to make a statement on the subject in the near future.

Mr. De la Bère

It is not a statement we want but action.
