HC Deb 26 April 1944 vol 399 cc778-9W
Major Kimball

asked the Minister of Food whether he will arrange to extend the present extra rations for heavy workers to those agricultural workers engaged on drainage schemes on hill farms in cases where the application is supported by the county agricultural executive committee, in view of the heavy nature of the work involved.

Colonel Llewellin

Workers engaged on drainage schemes on hill farms are eligible as are other agricultural workers for the special cheese ration.
