HC Deb 18 October 1944 vol 403 cc2395-6W
Mr. Tinker

asked the Secretary of State for War what steps he is taking to remove the wire netting near gun sites which takes up large tracts of agricultural land and thus restore the land to use for the next season.

Sir J. Grigg

At gun sites which are no longer needed the wire is being removed as soon as it can be with the very limited supply of labour available. At sites which are in use or which may have to be used my hon. Friend will appreciate that the wire must remain.
