HC Deb 11 May 1939 vol 347 c697W
Mr. Lambert

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether he can state approximately the number of pigs that will be sold in England and Wales and the number contracted to be sold to the Pigs Marketing Board during the current year?

Sir R. Dorman-Smith

I regret that I am unable to make the estimates asked for by my hon. Friend, but the number of pigs contracted to be delivered to registered curers under long contracts during the 12 months ending 30th November next is 1,479,226.
