HC Deb 07 April 1927 vol 204 c2290W
Mr. SPOOR

asked the Minister of Agriculture the number of cases of action taken by county agricultural committees to enforce the Regulations for cutting weeds under the provisions contained in the Schedule to the Corn Production Acts (Repeal) Act, 1921?

Mr. GUINNESS

The latest available figures of the number of cases in which action has been taken by county agricultural committees to enforce the Regulations for cutting weeds under the provisions of the Corn Production Acts (Repeal) Act, 1921, are as follow:

Animals Act, 1925, gives effect to this resolution so far as His Majesty's Government are concerned. To-day agricultural interests are as definitely opposed to any extension of the existing system as they were in 1923, and I can hold out no hope of any alteration in the position on the lines suggested by the hon. Member.
