§ Major KNIGHTasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Agriculture whether he will make a special effort to induce the proper authority to supply at once motor transport to assist in collecting and moving the fruit crops in Worcestershire, as any further delay will cause the waste of a large quantify of fruit?
Sir ARTHUR BOSCAWENI have communicated with the Ministry of Food on this subject, and I am informed that special consideration is being given to the disposal of the fruit crop in Worcester, and that arrangements will be made to prevent, as far as possible, waste of fruit due to the lack of proper transport.
