§ Mr. John HareThe Government accept the general view of the Committee an Transactions in Seeds as to the need for revision of existing seed control arrangements. As regards the detailed recommendations, we intend to proceed as soon as possible to implement those which can, without other action, be given effect by revising the regulations under the present Seeds Act.
