§ Mr. Lambertasked the Minister of Agriculture how many acres of grassland have up to date qualified for the ploughing subsidy of £2 per acre?
§ Sir R. Dorman-SmithUp to and including 18th July, notifications of intention to plough up grassland had been received in respect of approximately 186,000 acres in the United Kingdom. I am unable to say what proportion of this acreage will qualify for the Government grant, the payment of which is conditional upon the fulfilment of certain conditions of eligibility.
