§ Major Markhamasked the Minister of Agriculture whether he is aware that considerable delay has occurred in obtaining permission to repair a farm barn at Manor Farm, Castlethorpe, Northamptonshire, partly destroyed by fire two months ago; and whether he will cause inquiries to be made as to the reasons for this delay?

Mr. HudsonAccording to my information, no application for repairs was received from the owner of the barn until 5th November last. I do not consider that there has been any undue delay in handling this application.
