HC Deb 07 August 1916 vol 85 cc689-90W
Mr. GRAHAM

asked the Secretary of State for War whether permission will be granted by the military authorities for local traders in provincial towns in Ireland to purchase new hay for the use of van and post horses, in order that their ordinary business may be carried on; and, in the event of permission being given, to whom should application be made for the necessary order?

Mr. FORSTER

The answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative. I am sending to my hon. Friend the information asked for in the second part of the question.
