§ Mr. Yorkasked the Minister of Agriculture whether he will now give an estimate of the lambing percentage of hill sheep flocks eligible for hill sheep subsidy of upland flocks and lowland flocks.
§ Mr. T. WilliamsI regret that I have no statistics of lambing percentages for any of these classes of sheep. It is clear, however, from the reports of my local officers that the number of lambs reared is likely to be substantially less than in normal years, particularly in hill districts.
