Transactions in Seeds (Report)

HC Deb 05 May 1958 vol 587 cc845-6

46. Mr. Willey

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what action is being taken following the Report of the Committee on Transactions in Seeds.

Mr. John Hare

The organisations representing the interests affected by this Report have been invited to submit their views. When all of them have been received and considered they will need to be discussed with the organisations before decisions can be reached on the action to be taken on the Committee's recommendations.

Mr. Willey

Can the right hon. Gentleman say when we can expect this report —his own report—and whether it will be before the summer?

Mr. Hare

I cannot at this stage let the hon. Gentleman know. I am still waiting for representations from two important organisations, but I will certainly see that there is no delay.
