§ 46. Mr. Lambertasked the Minister of Agriculture whether he will publish separate accounts for each county agricultural executive committee.
§ Sir T. DugdaleYes. After considering this matter I have decided to publish the trading accounts of individual county agricultural executive committees, starting with those for the current year, 1951–52.
§ 53. Sir W. Smithersasked the Minister of Agriculture if he has considered information that has been sent him concerning activities of the county agricultural executive committees; and, in view of the fact that they are running at a loss of about £4 million a year, if he will consider bringing their activities to an end.
§ Sir T. DugdaleI am writing to my hon. Friend about the particular cases he has brought to my notice, but the reply which I gave on 6th March about the continued existence of the county agricultural executive committees still holds good.
