§ Colonel Ponsonbyasked the Minister of Agriculture whether the "Dig for Victory" campaign is designed to encourage the small private grower to cater for his own household requirements or whether he is to be encouraged to produce a surplus; and, in the latter case, how is he to dispose of it?
§ Sir R. Dorman-SmithThe campaign is designed to encourage the small private grower to cater for his own household requirements. It is recognised, however, that the question of securing the effective use of surplus produce must be examined, and I am arranging, in consultation with my right hon. Friend the Minister of Food, for this to be done.
