§ Mr. Grovesasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food whether, in conjunction with the Minister of Agriculture, arrangements are being considered whereby growers of hard fruit, such as apples and pears, can secure storage and preservation of their products in order that they may be available for the winter?
Major Lloyd GeorgeI regret that I can hold out no prospect of supplies of controlled materials for the erection of new buildings for the storage of fruit being provided in present circumstances.
