HC Deb 25 May 1939 vol 347 cc2513-4W
Mr. De Chair

asked the Minister of Agriculture how many young men between the ages of 17 and 20 it is estimated could be employed during the next three years on bringing into a state of perfection, the field drainage of Great Britain?

Mr. Ramsbotham

I have been asked to reply. My right hon. Friend regrets that it is not possible for him to form an estimate of the kind to which my hon. Friend refers.
