§ Mr. GRANVILLEasked the Minister of Agriculture if it is the intention of His Majesty's Government to introduce proposals for improving the economic and social conditions of agricultural workers?
§ Mr. N. BUXTONThe general proposals of the Government for the benefit of agriculture which have been announced will, it is hoped, contribute to the improvement of the economic and social conditions of agricultural workers, and some of the steps which have already been taken, namely, the more active administration of the Agricultural Wages Act, and the provision of an additional £20,000 for the purpose of assisting, by way of loans, the erection of village halls, are specifically directed to that end.
