HC Deb 07 May 1931 vol 252 c582W
Captain MAC DONALD

asked the Minister of Agriculture if he will state the number of persons in the Isle of Wight who have applied for allotments under his scheme for assisting the unemployed; and how many persons have actually been provided with allotments?

Dr. ADDISON

In order to supply the required information it would be necessary to circularise all the allotment authorities in the Island, and I do not think that the labour and expense involved in this inquiry would be justified. I understand that there have been no requests for the supply of seeds at reduced prices.
