HC Deb 29 May 1946 vol 423 cc207-8W
104. Mr. Hurd

asked the Minister of Supply if, in view of the urgent need for conserving all food crops, he will arrange to coordinate the activities of his Department, the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Agriculture, in order to increase the output of wire-netting and allocate supplies essential for the protection of kitchen-garden crops against rabbits.

Mr. Leonard

We are doing everything possible to increase the output of wire netting and arrangements are in hand for increased supplies to be made available to the small user. The Ministry of Supply is in constant contact with the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Agriculture regarding supplies.
