HC Deb 16 March 1931 vol 249 cc1680-1W
Dr. PETERS

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether he is now in n position to make a statement upon his consultations with the representatives of the National Association of British and Irish Millers with regard to what is known as the quota, system of home-grown wheat; And whether he will consider, as a temporary measure, the initiation of such a system to secure to arable farmers a market for their produce and save them from bankruptcy?

Dr. ADDISON

I have had no recent consultations with the association referred to, and I am not in a position to make any statement in reply to the last part of the question.
