HC Deb 09 December 1929 vol 233 c55W
Mr. GRANVILLE

asked the Minister of Agriculture if he is now in a position to state the date of the conference of agricultural interests?

Lord FERMOY

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether he has received a reply from all the parties invited to take part in the conference of the principal agricultural interests; whether, in that case, he will state the names of the delegates who have been appointed and when the conference will be held; and whether it will take into consideration the issue of the position of cereal growers?

Mr. N. BUXTON

I am unable to state the date of the conference, as I have not yet received replies from all the parties invited. The second part of the Noble Lord's question does not, therefore, arise. In reply to the last part, I would refer him to the answer which I gave to the hon. Member for Eye (Mr. Granville) on 28th November, of which I am sending him a copy.
