HC Deb 02 December 1946 vol 431 cc7-8W
53. Colonel Ropner

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether he will provide in formation as to the present approximate annual value per head of the output of the agricultural community of this country; how it compares with the average annual value per head of the output of the other principal industries such as coalmining; and whether he will arrange for such data to be made available regularly in future in order that a more effective comparison can be made between the importance to the national economy of agriculture and the importance of other industries.

Mr. T. Williams

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply I gave to the hon. Member for Tonbridge (Mr. G. Williams) on the 17th December last.
