HC Deb 17 August 1909 vol 9 cc1354-5W
Sir CHARLES DILKE

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is the intention of the Government as to the Development Grant Bill of the present Session; and whether, in addition to proposals as to roads, it is to contain detailed proposals in relation to agriculture and to schools of forestry?

Mr. LLOYD-GEORGE

I hope shortly to introduce a Bill dealing with the Development Grants and the funds provided in the Finance Bill for construction and improvement of motor roads. Provisions will be included in the Bill for grants or advances to be made in relation to both agriculture and forestry.
