HC Deb 03 November 1949 vol 469 cc589-90
49. Mr. Dye

asked the Minister of Agriculture how much land is being farmed by the Norfolk Agricultural Executive Committee in Methwold Fen; and how long it is his intention to continue the present arrangements.

Mr. T. Williams

The Committee farm 423 acres of land under requisition. A decision as to the future of this land will be taken as a result of the review of requisitioned land now in progress.

Mr. Dye

How long will it take to reach that decision?

Mr. Williams

I hope we shall make it before the end of this year.
