§ Mr. WATERSONasked the Chief Secretary whether he can give any information as to the procedure adopted by the military authority in Ireland when orders are issued for the closing down of a creamery; how much notice is given to those responsible for the creamery; whether any opportunity is given to dispose of the perishable stocks of foodstuffs; and what arrangements are made by the authorities for the utilisation of the milk which farmers cannot dispose of owing to the closing down of such creameries?
§ Mr. HENRYI am in communication with the Commander-in-Chief in this matter, but am not at present in a position to give a detailed reply on the procedure adopted in these cases. Perhaps the hon. Member will repeat his question early next week.
