§ Mr. HANCOCKasked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that the Derbyshire War Agricultural Committee asked last December and January for the release of 369 men as pivotal men; that not 50 per cent. of these men have been released; and will he expedite these releases, seeing there is such a serious shortage of labour and congestion of farm work in the county?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLInquiries are being made, and I will inform my hon. Friend of the result as soon as possible.
