HC Deb 26 October 1939 vol 352 cc1599-600W
Mr. Jackson

asked the Minister of Agriculture what information he has as to the correctness or otherwise of the 4th June agricultural returns; and whether he is satisfied with the way they have been collected?

Sir R. Dorman-Smith

I have no reason to doubt that the 4th June agricultural returns are furnished correctly in the great majority of cases, or to feel dissatisfied with the manner in which they have been collected. The possibility of improving the methods of collection and tabulation of the returns is the subject of constant attention, and is receiving special consideration in view of the present situation.
