§ 97. Sir B. Neven-Spenceasked the Minister of Works whether, in view of the importance of increasing home-grown supplies of tomatoes and other foodstuffs grown under glass, priority is given for the repair of bomb-damaged greenhouses; and whether he is satisfied that sufficient supplies of glass are available for the purpose.
§ Mr. Tomlinson:Yes, Sir. My Department deals with such cases in consultation with the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries. Steps are being taken to increase the supplies of glass, and this should enable the requirements for greenhouses to be more readily met.
