HC Deb 01 July 1943 vol 390 c1793W
Mr. Hewlett

asked the Minister of Agriculture, in view of his circular of 23rd November, 1942, to local authorities, whether he has received assurances that the local authorities who, up to that date, had not been active in stimulating vegetable production in gardens and allotments are now alive to their responsibilities?

Mr. Hudson

I have every reason to believe that local authorities realise the necessity of stimulating vegetable production in gardens and allotments, but the actual results must of course depend largely on local conditions.
