Mr. David Adamsasked the Minister of Agriculture whether he has yet made an appeal to industrial employers throughout the country to make available to employees, as allotments for their food production and also for works canteen requirements, suitable land adjoining their respective factories?
Mr. HudsonI propose to make this appeal at the end of September, when the "Dig for Victory" Campaign for 1941–42 is launched. Meanwhile, I am having inquiries made regarding the extent to which industrial employers in various parts of the country have already taken action on the lines indicated in the Question.
