§ Mr. Ness Edwardsasked the Minister of Works if he is aware that Sergeant Wilkins, R.A.F., now serving in Belgium, has occupied a piece of land as an allotment in Caerphilly for 11 years without charge by the freeholder; that it is now being tilled by his wife; that she has been served by his Department at Cardiff with a notice to quit the land unless she agrees to sign a document offering to give it up when required without compensation; and if he will see that this serving airman's interests are secured.
§ Mr. SandysFor a number of years Mrs. Wilkins, or her husband, has been allowed to cultivate this land rent free, on the understanding that the landlord could resume possession at any time if he so desired. Since the land in question has been requisitioned, this arrangement has been continued, and there is no present intention to terminate it.
