HC Deb 16 February 1933 vol 274 c1194W
Mr. T. WILLIAMS

asked the Minister of Agriculture in view of the alterations made to the by-laws of the Wheat Commission, in how many cases it has been ascertained that farmers have sent in twice the same lot of wheat to be certified as of milling quality, and kept at home the produce of a similar acreage which was of doubtful quality; and whether any prosecution has taken place?

Major ELLIOT:

I am informed by the Wheat Commission that in none of the cases they have so far investigated has it been ascertained that any farmer has acted in the manner suggested in my hon. Friend's question. No proceedings accordingly have been necessary.
