§ Mr. WEIGALLasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Agriculture, what sum is annually available to the Board for the purposes of scientific agricultural research?
§ Sir E. STRACHEYIt is impossible to mention any precise sum, inasmuch as the money expended, or granted by the Board for scientific research work varies each year. A sum of £1,200 was provided for inquiries, experiments, etc., in the Board's Vote for 1910–11, and a similar sum for grants for experiments and research by institutions and societies.
